What’s a design program without some cool merch?

The HCDE GSA is hosting a merch design contest for the upcoming school year, open to all masters, certificate, and PHD students in HCDE. If having your design on everyone’s merch isn’t tempting enough, winners will receive merch for free!

Haven’t made merch before? Don’t worry - just reach out to the GSA for help translating your designs to physical form, and take a look at the google form for more design specifications. Contest is open to all, regardless of experience. We’re looking forward to see what you create!

Deadline Oct 3rd! by @hcdegsa

HCDE Beyond Design 💡
Yesterday, HCDE welcomed five amazing alumni back to campus for a packed career panel with more than 175 students. Panelists shared how their HCDE education led them to different roles across product management, UX writing, UX engineering, and human factors, and offered advice for students exploring these fields.

Thanks to our alumni panelists for sharing your insights, and to @hcdegsa and @uxuw.club for co-sponsoring this event! Panelists sit at the front of the room with "Careers Beyond Design" presented on the screen taken in University of Washington by @hcdegsa
