Program Description

The course takes a hands-on approach to games development, calling on you to work on games and creative-technology projects from the start, turning game ideas into playable demos. In the first year, you learn a variety of relevant techniques, including programming and 2D graphics for games, as well as researching the market and generating ideas for original games.

You work in our specialist creative-technologies and game-development labs, and use a range of cutting-edge technologies - such as motion capture, green screen, VR and XR - to develop your practice and build a professional portfolio.

From your second year, you select one of three areas in which to specialise:

• games programming - learn industry-standard programming techniques and languages, including C# and C++, so you can turn designed gameplay into a playable form
• games design - design immersive player experiences and game environments, levels, mechanics and game systems, including creating in-game challenges
• games graphics - create artwork, models and animations tailored for use in games, using the latest graphics techniques in game engines

• Explore the latest developments in mobile, PC, web, console, virtual reality and augmented reality gaming
• From your second year, become a student member of the industry association Ukie, offering benefits such as attending game conferences; applying for internships and mentorships; joining games-related events such as game jams; and receiving portfolio help and advice
• Study in passionate, dynamic groups as you get to grips with commercially relevant software tools such as Unreal Engine, Unity, Gamemaker Studio 2, 3ds Max, Maya and Blender
• Gain experience with motion capture rigs, virtual reality and 3D sculpting
• Challenge yourself by solving complex creative problems; presenting new game concepts and ideas; and building your team working and project-coordination skills
• Benefit from personal development planning which will help you research companies; formulate your future plans; develop a professional, industry-focused portfolio; and apply for jobs
• Take the course over four years and include a fee-free year in industry (see below), building experience and making contacts for the future
