About the Course

Foundations of User Experience (UX) Design is the first of a series of seven courses that will equip you with the skills needed to apply to entry-level jobs in user experience design. UX designers focus on the interactions that people have with products like websites, mobile apps, and physical objects. UX designers make those everyday interactions usable, enjoyable, and accessible. The role of an entry-level UX designer might include empathizing with users, defining their pain points, coming up with ideas for design solutions, creating wireframes, prototypes, and mockups, and testing designs to get feedback. Current UX designers and researchers at Google will serve as your instructors, and you will complete hands-on activities that simulate real-world UX design scenarios. Learners who complete the seven courses in this certificate program should be equipped to apply for entry-level jobs as UX designers. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Define the field of UX and explain why it’s important for consumers and businesses. - Understand foundational concepts in UX design, such as user-centered design, the design thinking framework, accessibility, and equity-focused design. - Identify the factors that contribute to great user experience design. - Review common job responsibilities of entry-level UX designers and teams that they work with. - Explore job opportunities and career paths within the field of user experience. - Explain why design sprints are an important and useful part of a UX designer’s work. - Describe common UX research methods. - Identify and account for biases in UX research....

I absolutely loved it. It was a great experience and I learned several new things. I can't wait to continue my journey. I really like how humanized it is, although its virtual and I love the diversity and inclusion of it.

This is exactly what I needed to kickstart my UX/UI adventure. Love how everything is organized! Bite sized chunks instead of 3 hour long lectures. Now on to the other 6 courses! Thank you Google! And thank you Coursera!

It touches the basic of UX and build network and portfolio. I thinks the program is well constructed and easy to understand but some activities may takes a little more time to complete I think but it definetley worth it.

Clear and easy-to-understand instructions allow people who have no foundation to enter the threshold smoothly. It is highly recommended for those who want to learn but are worried that the course is too difficult to use.

Perfectly informative for someone who missed basics, coming from someone who is in graphic design world for 6 years. Though, creating a portfolio without any work with UX projects to show would be hard! Good luck to all!

Great structure of the course. Take it if you knew very little about UX like me. It includes not only the techniques but also how can you get started as an designer and how to network. All important professional skills.
