Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can't afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you'll find a link to apply on the description page.

Question 4

Do I need to know a lot about AR/VR?

Accepted Answer

No. This course briefly reviews key concepts and technologies in XR. However, the first course in the specialization provides a stronger foundation. This course is focused on AR/VR design. It takes established principles, methods, and tools that you may be familiar with from traditional user experience and interaction design, which is often focused on web and mobile, and transfers that knowledge to XR.

Question 5

Do I need to have programming experience?

Accepted Answer

No. This course is targeted at a broad audience. There are no programming exercises associated with it. A design background is useful but not required either. If you already have experience developing with XR technologies, this course will help you adopt a more user-centered approach.

Question 6

Do I need access to AR/VR devices?

Accepted Answer

No. To complete the main track of the course, it is recommended but not required. However, to complete the honors track, you will need access to AR/VR devices. To give AR a try, you need to have access to a smartphone. For VR, we do not recommend a particular device. It would be sufficient to use a Google Cardboard compatible display wrapper that turns your smartphone into VR goggles.
