The ability to critically evaluate the design, logic, and implementation of computer games.
Facility with advanced techniques for computer graphics and 3D digital animation.

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

DEGREE LEVEL 1

Students will learn fundamental skills required by technical Games Development professionals, and the basic understanding of programming and systems design. Some specialised modules will provide them basic knowledge of interactive computer games development, such as logic design, graphics and more. The modules will also help them develop personal and organisational skills, as well as nurture creativity and innovation.

Common Modules	Specialised Modules
Introduction to Management System Analysis & Design Programming with Python Mathematical Concepts for Computing	Computer Games Design: Documentation Computer Games Level Design Introduction to Graphics & Basic 3D Applications Introduction to Scripting for 3D Applications Digital Imaging Production
Elective Modules (Choose 1)
Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming Introduction to C Programming

DEGREE LEVEL 2

In-depth games analysis and design skills will be learnt, in which students will gain a better understanding of the complete computer games production lifecycle, that includes character modelling, special effects, computer graphics, animation, mathematics and more. We will further nurture their creativity and innovation as well as independent learning to prepare them for the workplace.

Common Modules	Specialised Modules
Programming for Data Analysis Creativity & Innovation Research Methods for Computing and Technology	Analogue Games Basic 3D Computer Character Modelling Believable Models for Games & Virtual Reality Computer Games Design: High Concept and Preproduction Computer Games Design: Production and Testing Computer Graphics Games Engines Imaging & Special Effects Mathematics for Computer Graphics

INTERNSHIP (16 weeks)

Students will undertake an Internship/Industrial Training for a minimum period of 16 weeks to prepare them for a smooth transition from the classroom to the working environment.

DEGREE LEVEL 3

Students will make use of their previous studies and industrial experience to extend their familiarity in the field of Computer Games Development and to refine their personal and professional development. Students will move further into advanced techniques for computer graphics and animation.
