We hosted Mat Duerden, Associate Professor of Experience Design and Management at BYU. It was a fruitful visit. We had some promising discussion about current and future research projects at the Experience Lab. During his visit, Mat observed one of our data collections on campus (speed-date project), and provided theses consultations to our Master students on tourism and leisure studies. In terms of education, he gave a guest lecture to our tourism experience design class and connected with a lot of our teaching staff at the academies of leisure and tourism. He also met with the Internationalization team and discussed student exchanges. Following Mat’s visit, we had 5 BYU students visit our campus and are considering applying for our graduate programs next year. Here is a video interview we had with Mat, at the HUB: https://hub.buas.nl/listen_show/experience-design-with-mat-duerden/
