The Student Finance service provides student loans to help pay for tuition fees and the cost of living, depending on your circumstances.
You'll be charged interest on your loan as soon as you take it out, but you only start repayments once you earn more than a certain amount - currently £21,000.
Repayments are based on how much you earn, not how much you've borrowed.
Course overview
Combine the fundamentals of computer science with the latest in games design.
You’ll use industry-standard tools, get practical experience and build a portfolio of work, kick-starting a career in this exciting, fast-growing industry.
The programme gives you the technical principles and know-how you will need to excel as a games designer, and practical development experience using modern games engines such as Unity and Unreal. You’ll study disciplines such as:
Object-orientated programming
Database systems
Artificial intelligence for games
Game design, programming and development
Mobile application development
The placement year in industry enables you to build contacts whilst developing your skills and professional confidence
This programme shares a common first year with all our other Computer Science programmes (Computer Science for Business, Cyber Security and Software Engineering, as well as the standard Computer Science programme), allowing you to transfer before the start of the second year if you feel an alternative course suits your emerging interests or career aspirations better.
