If you’re interested in an Interaction Design course, I’d definitely recommend to apply for Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design 2010-2011 programme. So far, it has been the most amazing creative and academic experience, with students from all over the world, with the best lecturers in the field. And for the next year, even a better course is being cooked. The deadline is May 3rd. Here the open letter from Alie Rose, head of communication.

Dear All –

In parallel with the launch of our new website, we are very pleased to announce the opening of the application process for our next generation of students.

As an education concerned with the broad potential of design and technology, the CIID Interaction Design Programme is looking for a wide diversity of students. We plan to have a class of 25 people and welcome applicants from all over the world with educational backgrounds in varying disciplines. You should be curious and creative, enthusiastic about design and have the desire to study in a cross-disciplinary environment. Whether you’re currently studying or working, you should be interested in the connections between education and interaction design practice.

To find out more about the application process and requirements please refer to the website:http://ciid.dk/education/admissions/ – there is a list of FAQs but if you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

The curriculum teaches students to apply technology to everyday life through the design of software, products and services. We believe in a hands-on and user-centered approach to interaction design. Students learn the programming and electronics skills needed to work with technology as a design medium. They conduct user-research and experience prototyping to provide real-world grounding to their concepts. Frequent work in multi-disciplinary teams encourages peer-to-peer learning and a diverse selection of visiting faculty exposes students to a range of expertise.

You can view documentation of the course and student projects here: http://ciid.dk/education/portfolio/.

Please feel free to distribute and post this information widely.

Kind regards,
Alie.
