This course has been created with our industry partners to be a highly focused digital games degree that encompasses not only theory but technical and artistic approaches.

Taught by industry professionals, you will learn to design video games from concept to implementation, developing gameplay, environments and user experiences to produce engaging play experiences. You will have the transferable skills to work and support teams in both technical and artistic capacities, across different real-time and interactive production environments, such as virtual reality and other forms of interactive entertainment. This course will provide rich and varied opportunities to work on collaborative projects, developing the soft and technical skills that video games companies look for in Games Designers.
