The Honours Bachelor of Digital Experience Design is a four-year degree that produces designers who can solve problems using human-centered, socially conscious, and economically viable digital solutions.


Project examples include but are not limited to:

  • Design user interface (UI) elements to provide interactive, informative, and engaging experiences
  • Develop user personas, journey maps, information architecture, user flows, etc. 
  • Conduct qualitative and quantitative research (surveys, interviews etc.) to inform and validate design decisions
  • Perform usability tests to gain feedback and provide insights that help enhance user experiences -- George Brown College has state-of-the-art user testing facilities
  • Assist with the development of augmented reality (AR) prototypes using appropriate tools 
  • Create 2D & 3D visuals for concept development of digital products, systems, and services
  • Identify and troubleshoot user experience (UX) problems (e.g., responsiveness, accessibility etc.)

  • Participate in design jams/sprints using knowledge of design tools such as card sorting, empathy maps, storyboarding etc. 


Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

Compensation must be provided by the employer. Are you able to provide an hourly wage (in CAD)?

Are you available for a quick call with the Field Education staff to initiate your relationship and confirm that the scope of your project fits the student's co-op requirements?

I understand that a Work Term Agreement must be completed by both the student and employer before beginning this experience.

I understand that an Employer Evaluation Form will be sent to me after the end of the student's co-op work term to assess their performance (worth 50% of their final grade). I agree to complete it.
