Games developers design, create and produce computer and video games and other graphically based software in a range of industries. You will work in development teams as an artist, programmer, producer or animator, creating detailed design plans, preparing and designing graphics, animations and images for editing, and testing.

Your subjects cover all major technical aspects of the games development process from design to production. The course provides you with a solid understanding of game technologies including programming, applied maths, computer graphics and game engines. You are supported to expand your knowledge and skills to include mobile and web app development, 3D modelling, and undertake professional development.

This degree also prepares you for work outside of games and digital media to give you broad career options. You can work in health, defence forces, education and automotive, and could join our graduates who are designing everything from simulators to medical imaging.
