Computer Science – Video Game 设计
A WINNING GAME DESIGN PROGRAM
Imagine creating a passion, like the one you feel when gaming, for a new generation of gamers. As the video game industry continuously grows, so do opportunities for those who understand both the creative and technical sides of the industry. 在博彩平台推荐的电子游戏设计课程, you’ll gain a breadth of knowledge in design, 动画, 平面艺术 and computer programming – all valuable skills that will make you a player in the dynamic game design industry.
项目的亮点
TU’s video game design program will provide you with the skills you need to successfully work in the games industry as a programmer, designer or producer. You’ll gain a broad base of experience, allowing you to find success either at larger firms or with smaller developers – the latter of which is of tremendous contemporary relevance, 游戏开发中的许多新工作都来自中小型工作室.
在过去5年里，独立游戏开发出现了巨大的增长, 因为手机游戏越来越受欢迎, 以及Unity等现成游戏引擎的普及. The video game design field is an offshoot of software development and so fits in nicely with our program as well as our software development concentration. 然而, 电子游戏设计缩小了范围，专注于游戏产业, which is growing globally and exponentially.

有问题吗??
“当涉及到新事物时，任何人的头脑中都会有一点怀疑. But for me, I think proving people, who said I couldn’t do it, wrong is my biggest motivation. 对我来说再也没有什么是不可能的了. The world is constantly changing and I feel like 我是 much more capable of adapting to those changes now compared to when I was walking on to TU’s campus for the first time.”
