Frequently Asked Questions about Human Computer Interaction

  • Human-computer Interaction (HCI) studies the relationship between computer technology and people. HCI is a multidisciplinary approach to observing how to best design computers and other forms of information technology for our everyday user needs and enjoyment. It borrows methodologies and techniques from Computer Science, Human-factors Engineering, and Cognitive Science to make our interaction with technology as beneficial as possible.

    HCI is important to learn because it’s designed to close the gap between user and device to maximize efficiency, with some even using it to improve the happiness and satisfaction of users. This is applied through user-interface design, accessibility (e.g. screen readers), keyboards, and other tools that help us use technology more easily and effectively.‎

  • HCI skills are slated to become more in-demand through 2026, with job growth rates cited at 9.3 percent. Because there will continue to be new human needs to address as more computers and computer systems evolve, learners can expect to benefit from these projections. Not only are these opportunities found in the tech sector, but ScienceDirect reveals that human-computer interactive systems are much-needed the manufacturing industry.

    HCI Engineers make a median of $104,269 in the U.S., with skills that are useful in other roles such as UX Designer, Digital Copywriter, UX Researcher, Product Designer, UX Writer, Usability Analyst, Research Associate, and a wide variety of others.‎

  • HCI courses offered through Coursera equip learners with knowledge in generating and prototyping design ideas; leveraging feedback from stakeholders; understanding principles of design and design-thinking strategies; and more.

    Lessons on HCI are taught by instructors from major universities, including University of California at San Diego. Learners can enjoy exploring HCI with instructors specializing in HCI, Computer Science, Cognitive Science, Engineering, and other disciplines. Course content on HCI is delivered via hands-on projects, video lectures, readings, quizzes, and other types of assignments.‎
