Game Design

Game design requires attention to detail, creativity, passion, and imagination. It’s the place where the right and left brain meet. A place to create and build something incredible. 

Split between The Beacom College of Computer and Cyber Sciences and the College of Arts and Sciences, this interdisciplinary program is for ambitious students who want to work in the highly competitive gaming industry, or similar fields. 

This demanding program requires you to tap into your computer science and digital design skills. Our approach is project-based. You’ll build your communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. All the while gaining hands-on experience with digital games, mobile apps, websites, simulations, and more. Learn about specific tools and processes used within the game creating world. Discover programming languages, 3D modeling, and 2D graphics. Integrate game mechanics, narrative, aesthetics, and technology to craft interesting and effective player experiences.

Our program is cost-effective and one of the few in our region, so you’re guaranteed an education that prepares you for your post-college career. The skills you develop while earning your Computer Game Design degree will leave you prepared for many careers, not just game design.
