Human Computer Interaction

An interdisciplinary program that focuses on the study of the interaction between people and technology and how that technology impacts society, and combines disciplines within the fields of computing and information science (information systems, software engineering, artificial intelligence and design) and the behavior sciences (cognitive science, cognitive psychology, sociology, organizational psychology, and social psychology). Includes instruction in information technology, cognitive and behavioral sciences, and systems design.

While Human Computer Interaction offers degrees up to the Post masters certificate, the majority of students earn a Associates degree. Students study Human Computer Interaction all around the US, though the major at the Doctors degree research scholarship level has the most graduates in Minnesota. The average annual income for a graduate with a bachelor's degree in Human Computer Interaction is $47,533.
