The MS in Information Science: Human-Centered Computing specialization at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information focuses on systems designed with the user as the primary consideration. The program emphasizes adaptive interfaces, user modeling, social computing, information visualization, and the design of intuitive, intelligent, ubiquitous systems. Students learn to analyze user behavior, preferences, and data (explicit and implicit) and build systems that improve workplace satisfaction, simplify navigation through information spaces, and leverage environmental information for user benefit. Required courses include Information Visualization, Social Computing, and Interactive System Design, along with electives such as User Experience Engineering, Game Design, Immersive Media Technologies, and Artificial Intelligence. The core MSIS curriculum (Information Security and Privacy, Human Information Processing, Algorithm Design, Database Management, Applications of Networks) is also required. 来源： https://www.sci.pitt.edu/academics/masters-degrees/computer-science-ms
