This is an introductory course on multimedia information systems. The main goal is to provide students with basic analytical
skills to conduct research, to pursue further study, or to perform advanced engineering work on multimedia related topics.
You will learn how to design and develop multimedia information systems that account for the principles of human
sensation, perception, cognition, interaction and learning. The current course focuses on developing systems in a Web
environment, but the principles should apply to every information system that interacts with people.
