MA students focus on human experience design skills relevant to corporate, business, and educational settings. Coursework includes instructional design and development, project management, learning theory, design thinking, multi-media production, and evaluation and research. Students also complete a creative project or internship focused on their career goals.
These students often go into careers in instructional design and development in business, education, and government. Positions range from highly design-oriented jobs requiring extensive instructional development skills to product development-oriented jobs requiring skills in data analysis, project management, and evaluation. Graduates can also use these skills in preparing training materials for face-to-face and online formats.
The Master of Arts degree is available on campus at Utah State University in Logan- UT, or online.
