UX/UI Designer: Interface Design from Scratch

What this module is about:
Design is not just pretty pictures — it's solving real people's problems. In this module, you'll learn to understand who your users are, what they want, and how to make the interface help them rather than annoy them.

What you will do:

• Understand the difference between a client and a user and why it matters
• Conduct mini-research and create a user persona
• Draw the user's journey toward their goal
• Design the first black-and-white screen layouts (wireframes)

What you will add to your portfolio:
The first part of the HomeRun project — audience research, usage scenarios, and initial interface sketches.

What this module is about:
Once the logic is ready, it's time to add visuals. You'll learn how interface design differs from painting, and how to work with color, fonts, and composition so that the interface is both beautiful and user-friendly.

What you will do:

• Master Figma — the main tool for interface designers
• Learn to build grids and work with composition
• Choose a color palette and fonts for your project
• Create your first styled page layouts
• Adapt the design for mobile devices

What you will add to your portfolio:
A visual layout of the HomeRun project's main page, adapted for desktop and mobile.

What this module is about:
Time to turn static layouts into a working prototype. You'll learn to create design systems that speed up your work and keep you organized, as well as add animation and link screens into a clickable prototype.

What you will do:

• Dive into advanced Figma features: components, styles, auto layout
• Build your own design system (UI kit) for the project
• Turn rough layouts into detailed, polished design
• Link screens into an interactive prototype with transitions and animation

What you will add to your portfolio:
A fully finished clickable prototype of the HomeRun project — from the first screen to the last.

What this module is about:
The project is ready, but how do you convince a company to hire you? In this module, you'll learn how job searching works from the inside, how to go through interviews without fear, and how to negotiate terms that leave you satisfied.

What you will do:

• Write a CV that recruiters notice
• Set up your LinkedIn so recruiters find you
• Practice answering interview questions
• Learn to present your project in 5 minutes
• Learn how to discuss salary and not undersell yourself

What you will gain:
Readiness to enter the job market, confidence in interviews, and a clear understanding of where to go next.
