DEA 5520 Virtual Experience in Designed Environments
This course will immerse students in advanced techniques of design communication and evaluation for simulation-based research on user experience in designed environments. Through lectures, readings, demos, and hands-on exercises, the course explores advanced visualization media for design.
Learning Outcomes
Outcome 1: Students will demonstrate a coherent understanding of design and design research with advanced computer-mediated 3D visualization technologies in the field of architecture, interior design, and user experience/interface design.
Outcome 2: Students will apply analytic knowledge from readings and discussions to critically review and evaluate existing theories in interdisciplinary areas of environment and behavior, environmental psychology, design communication, and human-computer interaction.
Outcome 3: Students will brainstorm viable and innovative research topics from readings, lectures, demos, and discussions.
