This broad-based degree enables students to combine two passions. Students will gain a comprehensive understanding of business concepts and models, along with specialist knowledge of games design. Apart from that, students will learn about business organisation, management, leadership and enterprise combined with specialist modules in games design. Year 1 is mainly tutor-led. Students will study and analyse computer games and computer games development, and the contemporary and historical issues affecting the games industry and wider society. This course will also explore key business and management concepts as well as those in students’ specialist area. Students will examine the pre-production stages of game and level design with a strong focus on game mechanics and their role in designing an engaging and immersive gaming experience. This course will examine how to manage projects from pre-production, through to production, delivery and project closure. Year 2 takes a more student-led approach, allowing students to explore their own interests and deepening their insights as well as having more responsibility for their own learning. The final year explores more advanced topics within business and management and students will develop their awareness of their own responsibility as a future leader of business.
