Mark Vanderbeeken makes a good point in his Where to study experience design? at - always excellent - Putting people first blog:

Experience design has become a hot industry theme. Companies are looking to hire experience designers. New consultancies devoted to experience design are being founded nearly every day. Major industry players like Apple, Microsoft, Nokia and Philips are increasingly putting the user experience or experience design at the heart of their innovation strategy. And experience design is now also making inroads into other fields such as education, healthcare and tourism, to just name a few.

But where can you study it?

The short answer is that you can’t really study experience design.

Read his post and act if you know about some experience design study directions or schools.

Now that mobile phones are cheaper than PCs, there are three times more of them, growing at twice the speed, and they increasingly have internet access, isn’t it time to think about “mobile experience design study” directions too, or at least start to include them in the existing programmes?
