Why is this Important?
- Watching videos on the subject helps you understand the true nature of the major
- Viewing student work helps you see the quality and complexity of what you’ll study
- Videos allow you to see facilities, and resources of schools that teach the major
"Students graduate with a technical foundation equivalent to the BS in computer science as well as ability and sensibility in art and design. Thus, graduates of this program are able to participate in the programming/development of games while also being able to communicate effectively with artistic game development team members."
