The Human-Centred and Creative Computing major offers an interdisciplinary grounding in human-computer interaction, humanities-centred computing, and creative computing, including games, music, or graphics. This major is where computing meets a complex world with unique and varied social contexts to create impacts that change and enrich our lives. Students will gain insight and skills in designing, developing, and evaluating human-centred and creative applications, particularly applied to new and emerging technologies.
Learning Outcomes
- Identify and describe contemporary issues and challenges in human-centred and creative computing
- Synthesise knowledge of human-centred and creative computing systems and their social context to address problems
- Design and develop human-centred and creative technologies
- Apply theoretical frameworks and research techniques to evaluate and critique human-centred and creative computing systems
Other Information
This Major is incompatible with the Human-Centred and Creative Computing Specialisation (HCCC-SPEC) and the Human-Centred and Creative Computing Minor (HCCC-MIN).
