University of Applied Sciences Europe - Dubai

MA Visual & Experience Design

Design today goes far beyond aesthetics — it shapes how people interact with technology, services, and each other. The Master’s in Visual & Experience Design at the University of Europe for Applied Sciences (UE) Dubai prepares you to develop solutions that are both visually compelling and centered around people’s needs.

You’ll explore how visual communication, interaction design, and digital media come together to create meaningful user experiences. The programme teaches you how to respond to complex challenges by designing systems, interfaces, and narratives that work across physical and digital environments — from social platforms to smart products.

Course modules are structured in thematic clusters, allowing you to build knowledge step by step while applying it directly to real projects. You’ll work on creative concepts, research-based assignments, and industry-relevant challenges that push you to think critically about design’s role in culture, commerce, and technology. Whether you’re crafting visual identities, shaping interactive experiences, or designing for digital ecosystems, the goal is to find the balance between creativity, business goals, and social context.

Throughout the programme, you’ll be guided by experienced lecturers and supported in building your own direction. You’ll create a strong portfolio, sharpen your design voice, and learn to communicate your ideas with clarity and impact — across media, formats, and platforms.

At UE Dubai, you can choose the standard 4-semester track (2 years) or a 1.5-year fast-track option if you already have relevant academic or professional experience.
