BA (Games Design)

Course Description

The BA in Game Design will focus exclusively on the art & science of creating innovative games. Our philosophy is based around the belief that the 21st century will be the 'century of the game' like the 20th century was the 'century of the TV'. We will be focusing on designing, building and deploying games across multiple platforms not just for entertainment but for business, education, health and science. Students will learn how to design games for change because games are everywhere!

Career outcomes

Graduates from this programme can expect to follow a number of career paths. Many will want to innovate in the games industry, release their own games and setup a studio. Our business modules in 4th year facilitate that. Others will be very employable within the existing games industry as game designers, programmers and testers. As games are prolific in areas like education and marketing, graduates could gain employment in these industries as game designers.
