Applied Learning Project

Throughout this program, you’ll work on a capstone project: designing a mobile grocery shopping app for busy professionals. In a series of 12 projects, you’ll conduct user research, create wireframes and prototypes, and test your designs to ensure a seamless and intuitive user experience. You’ll apply UX design skills to a real-world scenario, building a portfolio-worthy piece that demonstrates your ability to solve complex design challenges.

You’ll start with user research, using different methods to uncover the pain points and the wants and needs busy professionals have when it comes to buying groceries.

Finally, you’ll transform your static mockups into an interactive prototype so Grocery Shopping App users can tap, swipe, and navigate the app, and give you valuable feedback on your design.
