In this context, it is aimed to introduce students to usability engineering and current information in the field of computer-human interaction, and to gain knowledge and experience in user interface design and evaluation. With the completion of the course, the student will be equipped with the necessary theoretical knowledge in the field of human computer interaction and gain the ability to look at software engineering with a different perspective. It will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to conduct more intensive research in the field of human computer interaction. |
