Présentation
Objectives

The domain of Human Computer interaction is attracting considerable attention in many areas of the software industry and in digital technologies in general.

This Master's program prepares students for jobs in research, R&D, industry and consulting: interaction designer, user interface specialist, engineer, designer and project manager of interactive applications on various platforms: desktop computer, web, mobile, Virtual and Augmented Reality. These jobs exist in companies that specialize in interaction design and in numerous academic research teams that work in the area of human-machine interaction.

Course Prerequisites

Required skills:

  • Object Oriented Programming (Not only CMS) and some maths
  • English level B2 (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) or above. You don't need to speak french, as the programme is entirely taught in english.

Applicants should have a B.Sc. degree in computer science, electrical engineering, computer engineering or information systems.
In special cases, applications from students in industrial design, media technology, computational linguistics, and cognitive sciences with sufficient skills in mathematics, software design and programming will be considered.

Skills
  • Know and be able to explain the fundamental concepts belonging to the field of man-machine interaction.

  • Set up user-centric design methodologies.

  • Design, develop and evaluate interactive systems adapted to users' needs (mobile applications, WEB applications, multimodal interactions, data visualization, virtual and augmented reality systems, systems for users with specific needs, etc.). ).

  • Use qualitative and quantitative methodologies (Design of controlled experiments) to assess interactive systems.

Career prospects

The Human-Computer Interaction course provides students with the fundamental knowledge and techniques required to design, build and assess interactive human-machine systems adapted to the needs of their users. It trains specialists in the field of Human-Computer Interaction, paving the way to careers in the academic field as well as at industrial R&D centres or in cutting-edge industries.

Continuation of studies: After graduation, students can apply to the doctoral programme at the STIC department of Université Paris-Saclay and either join one of the university's research laboratories or the R&D department of a company.

Entry into employment: M2 graduates can work for companies that develop innovative software, or start-ups, or join the R&D departments of companies such as Thalès, Orange, HP, IBM, Research, Yahoo, Google, etc.

Typical jobs in research, R&D, industry and consulting include:

  • interaction designer, UX designer,
  • interface usability specialist,
  • engineer, designer and project manager of interactive applications on different media (desktop, web, mobile).
