Learning Outcomes: 1. To illustrate an in-depth understanding of human-computer interaction theory and methods in state-of-the-art research. 2. To explain the interdisciplinary nature of human-computer interaction and the relationship between theory and design practice. 3. To be able to contribute to both human-computer interaction theory and human-computer interaction practice. 4. To critically evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of current research in the field of human-computer interaction.


Synopsis: You will engage with current research issues in human computer interaction at an advanced level, with a focus on human computer interaction research methods, theory and practice, covering topics of interface design, evaluation and modelling. You will investigate state-of-the-art research in contemporary areas of human computer interaction, indicative examples of which include: virtual and mixed reality environments, information visualisation, wearable technologies and device fabrication.

Content: Example content includes: Mental models Design space and design rationale Search and sensemaking HCI aspects of trust and security Information visualisation Persuasive technology Virtual and mixed reality environments Haptic interfaces End-user device fabrication
