OVERVIEW

Degree map removes barriers to completion and puts students in the driver’s seat with a unified, streamlined planning, scheduling and registration experience. They can tailor plans and prescribe personalized interventions to stay on course.

MY ROLE

As the lone designer, I worked with a team of product managers, developers and data scientists to bring this product to life. I worked closely with my product manager in the planning stages, performed user research and testing to better inform our decisions and created a design system. It was truly a team effort.
