Game Development BA(Hons)
You’ll learn how all the specialisms work together, how to work effectively in a team and the role you play in it. The course simulates how the industry operates and its methodologies in a studio environment that is built to mirror a real games development studio.
You will:
- Build your own games from day one and have the opportunity to establish your own company in your third year.
- Have the opportunity to change the games industry by making games for new markets and not simply replicating what’s already out there.
- Have the option to change your specialism at any point in your first year.
- Work in a department dedicated to gaming and be surrounded by people working in all aspects of the industry.
- Develop a multi-disciplinary approach, touching on all aspects of game creation, and make completed games.
