=****CSE575: Advanced Human Computer Interaction****=

****Course Description****
==**This course aims to gives students an understanding of how interactive systems are developed. The hardware and software issues that determine the usability of an interactive computer system will also be read in this course. Humans are the key deciding factor to make a computer system successful. This course discusses the key issues and their solutions to make a system more human friendly. Effective design is reliant upon understanding the human context in which a new artefact has to fit. This course provides the necessary knowledge and skills to design, prototype and evaluate usable human-computer interaction in both its narrow sense (the user interface) and its broad sense (information systems, people, organisations, even societies and cultures). It further provides a strategic grounding in both theory and good practice for students to make effective use of applying HCI principles to IS design in their professional work . **==
