Course summary
Channel your creativity and join a multi-skilled team to develop the next generation of video games. On our arts-based MA, you’ll join the vibrant games and technology community based here in Cambridge that includes ARM, Frontier Developments, Jagex and Ninja Theory.
If you have a degree in an art and design or computer games-related subject, our course will allow you to specialise in games art at Master's level.
Based in the inspiring environment of our new Compass House Games Centre, you’ll learn all about best practice in the games industry. We’ll encourage you to work in design production teams, tackling a series of creative and technical challenges with programmers and industry professionals. You'll develop your design skills and learn how to create and publish successful games across a range of platforms.
Assessment
Modules are subject to change and availability. You’ll show your progress through a combination of written and practical work, carried out individually and as part of a team.
Careers
Our MA gives you the chance to specialise in the design and technical implementation of computer games, whether you already have a games-related degree, or you're a recent graduate of a non-games-related degree who's looking to move into this area. Our course is also suitable if you work in another creative industry and are looking to move into games design and creation.
The skills you'll learn on this course are relevant to other forms of games - including board games and educational games - allowing you to consider a number of career options.
