Project Description

Looking for an exciting research experience in Human-computer interaction/Interaction Design? The TMI (Too Much Information) lab is recruiting DLA research assistants to support our current study!

We are focused on understanding remote workers’ experiences in a work-from-home setting and envisioning future technologies for well-being and work-life balance. We are looking for undergraduate research assistants to join our group to help develop and design study materials—creatively translating interview and "probe" responses from participants into novel and inspirational technology designs. We are looking for students with strong design and UX skills who are comfortable creating low-fidelity prototypes based on participant data.

In addition, all lab members (including our DLA colleagues) will have the opportunity to contributed to an in-depth literature review, help analyze study data, write an academic paper, and more! This is a great position for someone who wants to hone and practice design-forward UX skills.
