Programme Overview
The UI/UX Design programme at Sprytani Academy prepares you to design digital products that people genuinely enjoy using. You will develop a strong foundation in visual design principles, human psychology and modern design tooling — then apply those skills to real client projects that build your portfolio before you graduate.
Whether you are transitioning from a creative background, moving into design from development, or starting fresh, this course meets you where you are. Beginners learn the fundamentals first; experienced designers sharpen their process and adopt industry-standard workflows used at top product companies.
What You Will Learn
- User Research Methods — Conduct interviews, surveys, contextual inquiries and usability testing to understand real user needs before designing a single screen.
- Information Architecture — Organise content, define navigation structures and create sitemaps that make complex applications feel simple.
- Wireframing & Prototyping in Figma — Build low-fidelity wireframes through to interactive high-fidelity prototypes using Figma, the industry's most widely adopted design tool.
- Visual Design & Typography — Apply colour theory, spacing systems, typographic hierarchy and layout grids to create polished, accessible interfaces.
- Interaction Design — Design micro-interactions, transitions and motion that guide users through tasks and communicate system status clearly.
- Design Systems — Create and maintain reusable component libraries, style guides and tokens that keep large-scale products consistent across teams.
- Accessibility & Inclusive Design — Ensure your designs meet WCAG standards and serve users of all abilities, devices and contexts.
- Developer Handoff — Prepare design files with proper specs, annotations and assets so engineers can implement your vision accurately.
Who This Programme Is For
This course is designed for aspiring designers, graphic designers looking to move into digital product work, front-end developers who want to strengthen their design skills, and career changers who are drawn to creative problem-solving. No prior design experience is required — we start with the fundamentals and progress to advanced topics over the duration of the programme.
Curriculum Highlights
The programme is structured around project-based learning. In the first phase, you will master core UX research and strategy — learning how to define personas, map user journeys and prioritise features based on evidence rather than assumptions. The second phase focuses on visual design craft: you will work extensively in Figma, building responsive layouts, creating component libraries and learning auto-layout techniques that mirror professional workflows.
In the final phase, you will tackle a capstone project — a complete product design from brief to prototype — working in small teams with peer reviews and instructor critiques that simulate a real design studio environment. Past capstone projects have included healthcare booking apps, sustainable e-commerce platforms and community event dashboards.
