MSc Human Computer Interaction

Presentation

Presentation

The Masters in Human Computer Interaction is a joint degree organised by Paul Sabatier University (Toulouse 3) and the ENAC (École Nationale de l'Aviation Civile - French School of Civil Aviation). This course trains high-level professional specialists in the design and development of interactive applications, with an understanding of IT techniques and human performance.

HMI Master graduates are able to:

- Manage the "user-based" development of interactive software.

- Define and apply standards in terms of formats and usability.

- Assess the ergonomics and usability of software.

Master’s modules round off initial training in IT and provide specific skills in the field:

- Technological skills: understanding of the tools and techniques used in New Information and Communication Technologies (NICT).

- Method-based skills: software engineering, development process management and project management methods in the context of the development of interactive software.

- Integrating human performance considerations in the design of human-machine interfaces: human engineering, cognitive psychology, experimental psychology, ensuring our graduates can produce human-friendly software with a high level of usability.
