Modern Product Design: Design Intuitive, Scalable, and User-Centered Products

M

About this course

Product design today is about solving real problems, shaping user experiences, and building products that people actually use. In this course, you will learn how modern product designers think and work. We start with the fundamentals of understanding users and defining problems, then move into designing interfaces, creating flows, and building complete product experiences. You will go beyond tools and learn how to make decisions. How to balance user needs with business goals. How to collaborate with product managers and engineers. And how to design systems that scale. As the course progresses, you will work through real scenarios that reflect how top teams operate at companies like Google, Microsoft, Netflix, and Amazon.
