Human Computer Interaction:
COMPSCI 345
SoftEng 350
Semester 1, City Campus

Welcome to Human Computer Interaction. For computer users the interface IS the system and for the 'average' system over half the code is entirely about managing the user interaction. This makes HCI an important area of study and research within Computer Science. As you will find during the course, HCI encompasses everything from designing a web page like this to developing Virtual Reality environments! We often combine knowledge from psychology, design and computer science.
