Our History

The SPSU Usability Center was founded in 1994 with a goal to bring together industry and academia to benefit from the latest tools, research, and technology to support user-centered, task-oriented design.

For over a decade, the Usability Center has been helping clients learn about their users' experience, so that this knowledge becomes the basis for design.

The Center commits experienced professionals with the right mix of technical and subject matter expertise for each project.
