As the boundaries between our technological world and the analog world continue to blur, a user-centered perspective in product design helps us to ensure that technology is seamlessly integrated in our lives in a human way.

Hear from our Graduates
The culture at Hatch was quite relaxing and comfortable. Being a complete beginner, a person with zero experience in design, learning the Figma applications and UI/UX concepts in this journey was a total eye opener for me. The Hatch team was very helpful to guide us in our training.
Lim Uen Fang
Digital Designer Trainee
Hatch equipped me with the skills and knowledge needed in UI/UX to apply for similar jobs that touch on those skills. It has also provided me a chance to work on projects to build up a portfolio. Certain skill sets needed for job preparation such as resume and cover letter writing were also very useful in making me feel better prepared for job applications.
Heidi Lee
UI/UX Intern
The biggest draw of the program is career guidance and hands-on application for the learning part. I’d say career guidance is exceptionally helpful for those looking to switch careers or for those looking for employment. I liked that the program was structured by topics, units and there was a clear outline of assignments/tasks by the mentors.
