Course summary
This course is ideally suited to students wishing to discover and learn all three main areas of games development: design, programming and production. By studying all three areas of games development, you’ll acquire the skills required to work in a games studio or independently to create your own games. This broad skillset is desirable to employers in large and small studios in a highly competitive industry. On successful completion of study, we will issue the following award: BSc (Hons) Computer Games Design and Programming. You will be taught through a combination of lectures, seminars, workshops and laboratory practicals. Seminars enable you to discuss and develop your understanding of topics covered in lectures in smaller groups of around 16-18 students. In addition, you will have timetabled meetings with your personal tutor at least twice a year. You will be taught in first-class learning spaces throughout your course. Many of our courses are accredited or recognised by professional, statutory or regulatory bodies.
Graduates from our Computer Games Design and Programming award possess the skills to undertake a wide variety of industry jobs from small self-published titles to AAA blockbusters. Recent graduates have worked in roles such as C# developer, Unity programmer, visualisation programmer, senior functional testers, and augmented reality application developers.
