Program Description

Take your computer game development skills to the next level. Gain experience in multi-disciplinary working in our specialist studios and create an advanced portfolio. Skilled games designers are in high demand in the UK’s £3.78 billion video games industry. If you have a first degree in computer science or a similar technical degree, our MSc Computer Games Development (Computing) will give you the skills and confidence to create advanced level games. Study, plan, produce and test games in our Computer Game Development studio and hub, and gain the technical design skills to publish successfully across a range of platforms. 

As a Computer Games Development (Computing) student at ARU, you’ll study in Cambridge, home to developers including Jagex, Frontier Developments and Ninja Theory. Learn from guest speakers and work on live briefs from companies such as Sony and Sumo Digital. 

It can take up to three years to create a game, from initial concept to the finished product. One game can involve up to 200 professionals working as a team. As a game developer, you could design the visual styling as well as how it plays. You could be involved with animation, creating audio, programming, testing and producing. MSc Computer Games Development (Computing) will also equip you to develop ‘serious’ games. These are used in rehabilitation, education and training, defence, science, health, city planning and engineering.
