On the BSc (Hons) Games Development course you will learn the complete end-to-end process of making games. This includes core principles such as programming, but also project management, deployment and a deep understanding of game mechanics. All of this will result in making you highly employable in an ever changing and fast flowing industry. One of the unique components of this degree is that throughout the course the emphasis is on doing- and you will be working on game projects from day one. You will graduate with the technical and business skills that will allow you to pitch yourself to the games industry and with a games portfolio of completed work. This course includes a Year Zero, which promotes developing practical, technical and creative skills and confidence for the following three years. Building on your prior experience, you will be introduced to some of our workshops to assist your skill development, with an increasing emphasis on professional standards and independent study. The course places emphasis on your personal commitment to study, while supporting you in your progression.
