Course summary
In years one and two, students combine theoretical work and assessments with modules that clearly focus on the understanding of production processes associated with digital and games-based design. Students will have some opportunity to choose modules that reflect their interests and career aspirations whilst still ensuring they have a clear understanding of skillsets that will allow them to succeed in the wider industries. Year three provides the opportunity to show academic understanding with a dissertation whilst also analysing what skill sets they need to improve to meet practical and software based understanding needed in the industry through the completion of a module in Advanced skills in Digital Design. Finally, students undertake an independently planned and managed production project to demonstrate their skills to potential employers.The degree is taught at our ultra-modern City Hub campus providing access to professional equipment, studio spaces and Adobe Creative Suite along with other relevant software. You will also have numerous opportunities to engage with other students preparing to get into the creative industries and work in response to real-life industry briefs.
