Learner goals and capabilities

The Game Development and Interactive Media program is designed to provide students with a wide range of game design development and interactive media expertise.

Students are immersed in the game development process from day one and develop complete video games beginning in their first year. Successful students develop their knowledge and skills in a diverse team environment and learn to work effectively with programmers, artists, and designers to create innovative products that push the medium to its limits.


Beginning in May 2024, teams of 3-5 students will work with your organization to support you with achieving your key business objectives by developing a recommended plan of action.
