UI/UX Design Diploma Program

Students create and design scalable computer graphics with Adobe Illustrator, including core drawing and shape tools, transformation and reshaping features, text manipulation, and the pen tool. The module prepares the students to create simple vector graphics, educates them about best practices to enhance workflow, and trains them on how to integrate and manipulate colour and type in designs and to prepare documents for output to print, web, and video.

This course offers a more complex approach to using different tools, drop-down menus, and panels to create intricate projects. Students will use a perspective grid for creating 3D artwork that fades to a vanishing point. Other techniques taught are clipping mask creation, object rotations, pattern creations, and moving projects on a vertical and horizontal axis point. Students will use objects for aligning graphics, use brushes to paint, and work with live corners for visual effects.

Students examine the essential capabilities and creative applications of Adobe Photoshop CC, from correcting colour and print to retouching portraits, navigation, resolution, cropping, selecting, printing, and making web graphics.

This course covers advanced compositing techniques, including painting with the mixer brush, adding a background, matching colour schemes across images, and blending multiple pictures to create a panorama. Students also learn how to apply layer styles, use layer effects, add adjustment layers, and use various blending modes.

This course focuses on Adobe XD—an essential tool for the User Interface Design (UI) and User Experience Design (UX). Students will gain technical experience by applying these tools and applying best practices to create a design prototype. Distinguish key user needs in a project environment—both in an individual setting and in group discussions. App or web user interface prototype development lessons are covered.

The Capstone Project is the culminating experience of the UI/UX Design Diploma program, offering students an opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge acquired throughout the course in a real-world context. Guided by industry-standard design processes, students will engage in every aspect of UI/UX design, including user research, wireframing, prototyping, user testing, and iterative design. They will have the opportunity to work on a project of their choice or one provided by the instructor, simulating real-world design challenges and client expectations.

This course is focused on the discipline of labeling, navigation, and search systems for web and interactive products. Information architecture (IA) is a science that teaches students the organizing and structuring of content of the websites, web and mobile applications, and social media software. This course has become the fundamental study in many spheres, including design and software development.

This course combines career preparation with portfolio development, helping students build research and programming skills through hands-on projects in their disciplines. Participants will learn project management and creation techniques while receiving guidance on crafting tailored resumes and standout job applications. Through practical exercises, expert discussions, and peer feedback, students will enhance their ability to present key achievements effectively. By the end of the course, students will have a polished resume and a professional portfolio, equipped with the confidence to navigate the job market and advance their careers.

This course provides a foundational understanding of web development, focusing on HTML5, CSS3, and responsive design principles. Students will learn to hand-code web pages, style content with CSS, and implement media queries for mobile-first, responsive layouts. The course introduces JavaScript and the DOM, along with frameworks like Bootstrap and Tailwind CSS. Practical lessons include building a functional landing page, equipping students with the skills to design, develop, and deploy modern, user-friendly websites.

This course is designed for professionals aiming to advance their skills in UI/UX strategy, focusing on the creation of user-centric digital experiences. Students will explore advanced user journey mapping, service design concepts, and the use of key performance metrics like usability scores and conversion rates. Through workshops on industry-specific design—such as mobile apps and SaaS platforms—and integration of Agile and Lean UX methodologies, this course will equip students to collaborate effectively and contribute to high-performing teams.

This course covers the critical thinking strategies for effective graphic design and explores its effectiveness in various settings. Students will learn how to create a satisfying concept for an ad, brand assessment, and event campaign content and build a visual identity around an image or semblance. The course provides techniques on drawing and sketching concepts by hand before digital content creation.
