Purpose

The purposes of this Group are to:

● Educate current students about the UX (user experience) field and career path opportunities

● To build partnerships with companies outside SJSU in order to gain work/internship opportunities

● To act as a bridge in providing portfolio building opportunities

● To network with current students, alumni, and external partners

Mission

As Masters students pursuing degrees in information science, we believe in finding innovative, creative, data-driven solutions to user problems.

It is our hope to use this
platform to network within the UX community, share information about the UX career pathway with our fellow iSchool students, and build design portfolios.

Vision

The UX Student Group at the SJSU iSchool hopes to provide continuing awareness, professional development, and networking opportunities in the UX field.

This group will foster a professional working group where we can make connections with other students and external companies, and provide learning experiences and community through virtual events.
