PXD Medium Series Launch
An article series about design, college, and community. Made with coffee and love at Purdue.
Who are we?
It’s 11 pm. Amongst vast fields of corn, a bunch of students sit together in a glass building at the center of Purdue.
Fueled by coffee and armed with sticky notes, they’re analyzing the results of their latest research.
This is a typical scene from the life of a Purdue UX student. Behind every sticky note we write, there’s an underlying drive to learn more about people and apply that to what we create. We take a human-centered approach to design. It’s a messy process. It’s a process through which we’ve learned a great deal and established a sense of community.
This series is written by undergraduate students in the UX Design major at Purdue University. We’re small, but growing fast. Established a few years ago, the major is is one of the few undergraduate majors of its kind. We come from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences, which influences how we approach design.
We write articles about the program, topics in design we’re passionate about, and stories from our projects. Have a suggestion? Reach out at purdueexperience@gmail.com
