BA (Hons) Games Art and Technology

BA (Hons) Games Art and Technology is a bespoke course that helps students to gain an intimate understanding of the art development process, exploring such domains as environment design, character design and technical art practice. The real fun bit: this is your chance to explore how to tell the stories that pop into your head in the most visual way possible.

It also reaches further than that and our carefully crafted curriculum is designed to prepare you for a successful career in art departments within the games industry. Students will gain a strong understanding of how 3D models are designed, built and deployed into games engines. Meaning that by the time you graduate, you will have a comprehensive grasp of the industry’s production methodologies and you will be well-prepared to make your mark in this dynamic field.

That’s not to mention the opportunity for cross-collaboration with your peers who are studying TV and film: you will explore these technologies together.

All of our Creative Technologies’ courses go beyond the classroom, offering students practical experiences and industry connections to help you seamlessly transition into the professional world because the success of our industry-focussed teaching lies in you finding your place in the industry once you have graduated.
