Gain practical skills and master the industry standard software you need to thrive in your career. You will have hands-on experience with real-time game engines Unreal Engine and Unity and publish your very own game titles using cutting-edge technology such as motion capture, industry standard digital sculpting and animation software, and virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR) systems.
Experience first-hand what it’s like to work in the game industry by collaborating with industry professionals, stakeholders and fellow students to conceptualise, prototype and refine your games.
Customise your degree by combining the game design major with a digital design minor such as animation, graphic design or interaction design, or select another study option outside the School of Creative Arts.
