Certificate in Human-Computer Interaction
CERTIFICATE IN HUMAN-COMPUTER INTERACTION
Program DescriptionBuilding on a base of experience and expertise, the Department of Language, Literature, and Communication is proud to offer a graduate level Certificate in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) for distance learning students. As the computer industry has matured, the number of software and hardware products has greatly increased and the release time has shortened considerably. These trends have extended computer use beyond a small cadre of specialists to much of the public, and from a small number of calculation-intensive operations to a wide range of computer and communication tasks.
This program, designed in cooperation with industry experts, provides those involved in the design of human-computer interactions with the knowledge and skills they will need to create new and better ways for people to communicate with and through computers. The certificate, comprised of four graduate courses, provides an overview of HCI usability, in-depth work in electronic coaching systems, communication design for the World Wide Web, and a capstone design experience.

Winecrafts Winemaking Manual
Saratoga WineCrafts is a consortium of amateur wine makers based in Saratoga County, New York. The group can trace it’s origins to 1998, when a few friends and family members made some wine from grapes grown in the Finger Lakes. Over the years, the group has grown to its present size. Collectively Saratoga WineCrafts makes approximately 1500 bottles of wine per year. It has maintained its status as an amateur wine making group by decentralizing the overall winemaking process. While members share the use of major equipment, the wine itself is made by sub-groups in the cellars and garages of members homes with the guidance of an experienced amateur winemaker – that’s me - and this book is a collective documentation of that advice.
