Game Engineering at UCA

UCA's new MSc Game Engineering course aims to give you the necessary knowledge and skills to undertake advanced games development.

You'll build on your previous technical studies, whether these are within a technical games subject or in another relevant technical discipline, to develop complex game outputs.

During the course, you'll explore 3D graphics, including modelling, rigging, and animation using contemporary tools, together with AI and machine learning, which are often used in games to enable advanced game play, features, and worlds.

And using Unity and Unreal Engine, you'll begin to build games, culminating in your final major project.

You'll be supported throughout by a mix of academic expertise and insight from industry professionals, and have the opportunity to learn real-world skills beyond the classroom through networking, placements and competitions - from PocketGamer, Guildford Games Festival and London Games Festival to Rezzed, EGX and Medway Rapture Experience.
