Mobile internet usage recently surpassed desktop internet usage for the first time. Mobile applications are important to our consumption of media, news, social interactions, and learning. In this course, students will design and build applications to run on their own smartphones. In the process, students will not only learn about the fundamentals of building functional mobile apps but they will also conceptualize and design User Interfaces (UIs) that consider User Experience (UX).
