Hello, I received an offer for this course for 2023/24. I was wondering how you found the course and the experience with the university? Satisfied/not? Do you get enough training to go on and become a UX designer and how much of the uni work is directly usable for a portfolio? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am not currently at City, but I am the former head of the Centre for HCI Design. The Centre has a very clear focus on skills that translate to the workplace, and you should leave with a portfolio. HCID graduates have the highest UX salaries five years after graduating of any HCI masters in the UK by several thousands. I think that says it all. In my time the masters grew substantially, but it retains a lot of connection with practice and research today. Happy to set up a conversation with the current admissions tutor.
