Course Overview

Game design and development emphasizes game programming within a core computing education to prepare students for careers in the game, simulation, modeling, training, and visualization industries. The emphasis on computing fundamentals gives students more career options and also prepares them for graduate school. Students gain a breadth of knowledge in game design, interactive media, user interaction, animation, modeling, math, science, and design in the context of computational game development. Students can further specialize in engines, graphics, audio, narrative, and more with elective choices that span the entire university.

The game design and development major allows students to explore the entertainment technology landscape and related areas, while still pursuing a broad-based university education. The degree is intended specifically for students who aspire to hold careers within the professional games industry or a related field, such as simulation, edutainment, or visualization. This degree also provides students with a core computing education that prepares them for graduate study or employment in a number of computing fields.
