Interfaces are the visible face of a digital service: do not neglect them and become an expert with this Postgraduate certificate"
Although the importance of a good interface for an online service such as a website or an application is often ignored, it is one of the most significant factors in making that service a success. Without an aesthetically pleasing, clean, tidy and user-friendly interface, the user navigating through it will not stay long enough to use the different options offered, or will not understand how they work.
Hence, the need for experts who know how to apply customized and specific solutions for website interface design. The elements that make up an interface are often designed without taking into account the use that people, without advanced knowledge in computer science or engineering, will make of them. Specialists may know their code, but that code needs to be translated into simple and intuitive options for ordinary users.
