    Companies that prioritize an effective user experience (UX) notoriously experience the most success. Think about it: If the layout of a website or grocery store is confusing or frustrating, are you likely to return? Probably not.

    One more specific example is search engines. Why has Google emerged as the overwhelmingly dominant choice over, say, Bing or Yahoo? Consumers enjoy the UX.

    The demand for design and user experience skills is on the rise. In 2023, it was considered one of the most important core skills for workers, according to the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Survey 2023. And looking ahead, it is one of the top reskilling priorities of organizations over the next five years—third to AI and big data and technological literacy among tech skills.

    All of this supports the notion that UX and user interface (UI) jobs are in high demand. The demand for web developers and digital designers—which is the closest category to the role of UX designers—is growing faster than the national average, with an expected growth of 16% over the next decade.

    So for those enticed by the prospect of a career in a growing field where jobs can be secured across all types of industries, the world of UX is the place to be. But with many universities not necessarily offering degrees specifically tailored to the space, many individuals turn to UX bootcamps to gain the in-demand skills to succeed.

    As part of Fortune Education’s commitment to helping prospective students navigate the complicated and ever-changing education ecosystem, we are releasing our first-ever ranking of the best UX/UI bootcamps for 2024.
