This postgraduate degree runs in parallel with our MSc Computer Games Development (Computing), reflecting the multi-disciplinary nature of games creation.

In the first of two games development modules you’ll apply your existing skills to complex interdisciplinary projects, testing games design theory in a framework that will allow you to collaboratively plan successive games projects.

You’ll later develop a project that focuses on creating an innovative games experience. We’ll challenge you to develop projects with a target platform, audience and reward strategy in mind, and to reflect professional, legal and ethical issues in your game design.

Two research modules will introduce you to a range of core research methods in the creative and visual arts. You’ll explore the interaction of critical theory and studio practice, and the relationships between scholarship, reflective analysis and creative impulse.

The Masters Project is a self-directed visual project with reflective commentary, and the culmination of your learning on the course.

Modules are subject to change and availability.

You’ll show your progress through a combination of written and practical work, carried out individually and as part of a team.
