Computer Science (Game Engineering) BSc (Hons)

Newcastle University

This degree provides a firm foundation in the fascinating field of game engineering. You study a broad curriculum in your first two years, developing knowledge in different aspects of computing science, and gaining skills in problem solving, program design and implementation. In your third year, you move onto specialist topics in game engineering, developing skills and knowledge for your future career. Your modules focus on the design, development and implementation of software that drives computer games, and include: gaming simulations computer game development Our degrees in Game Engineering focus on the design, development and implementation of software that drives computer games (rather than the artistic element of game development). They enable you to design, develop and implement computer graphics software and applications on a variety of architectures including game consoles, graphic workstations and advanced 3D reality environments. They also allow you to exploit such software and hardware in entertainment, engineering, design and scientific visualisation. The North East of England is a hub for games development, making it an exciting place to kick-start your career in the industry.
