Course Overview

The experience you will receive on our course is second to none. Our Games Development degree is a fully integrated games studio experience from day one. This means that rather than learning in isolation, you directly apply your skills to a game within a games studio environment from the beginning. Industry leaders, senior students and qualified staff are all on hand from day one to provide mentorship as you begin this journey with us.

When you enter the door, you are greeted with our Games Development Pathway system. As you work on your games studio game, you will become exposed to the career paths within the games industry. During the weeks leading up to Christmas, you will receive mentorship and career guidance on these paths to help you decide which one to specialise in for the rest of your degree. By the end of your first semester with us, you will know how the industry works, how you fit within the industry and have a fully complete game under your belt for your portfolio.

Towards the end of your degree, you can submit your games to the UK Games Funded Tranzfuser competition and join our Games Hub, of which we have had finalists every year since 2016.
