Whether you are interested in developing games for entertainment or for serious applications, our BSc (Hons) Computer Games Programming will take you to the next level with your career plans.
Our foundation year route will also give you a solid platform for success.
Join a course with an outstanding reputation within the gaming industry
Gain both the theoretical knowledge and the practical skills you need to develop first-rate games
Choose to take an optional industrial placement year which will add substance to your CV and broaden your professional networks
Become a member of the Microsoft Developer Network Academic Alliance, allowing you to use Microsoft products at home.
An impressive portfolio of skills
You will study computer science with a strong emphasis on the practical programming skills needed for game development. Your studies will be carefully structured:
At the first stage of the honours degree, you will discover the foundations of computer science and software development, learning about computer programming and vital mathematics
In the second stage, you will explore the core topics of computer science that are particularly relevant to games development such as software engineering practices and principles; databases and large-scale data management; algorithms and data structures; and computer graphics. You will also develop employability skills, especially useful if you need to find a work placement after your second year
You can then take an optional work placement which gives you valuable real-world experience and will help to inform your final year of study
In the final year, you can concentrate on advanced topics including systems-level programming, code optimisation and low-level development; modern AI techniques and implementations; applying physics to games and simulations; and integrating art and artists into the development process.
