Design for the World of Spatial Computing

Group of individuals in xr glassesr

How do designers create compelling solutions and experiences in virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR), collectively referred to as extended reality (XR)? 

Using a cross-disciplinary approach incorporating art, technology, and business, the UCLA Extension Immersive Media Program was created to investigate new frontiers and applications in XR.

Get hands-on training and explore real-world case studies around experience-building, world building, and the business of XR. Students will use Unity, 3D modeling, and basic coding while creating front-end experiences and assembling industry-focused portfolios.
