This degree extends our Computer Science (Game Engineering) BSc degree by a year. This extra year is for your paid industrial placement year. 

During your course, you'll spend a year working in the industry. Put your learning into practice and gain experience in a working environment. This will be an accredited and paid industry placement during Stage 3.

You’ll learn to design, develop and use computer graphics software on different platforms, including game consoles and advanced 3D reality environments.

We’ll focus on the design, development and implementation of software that drives computer games, including:

gaming simulations

computer game development

In your first two years, you’ll study a broad Computer Science curriculum. You’ll learn about problem-solving, program design and implementation.

In your final year, after your placement, you’ll learn more about game engineering and study more specialised modules.
