Major subjects include the foundation skills associated with programming and games, as well as the development of professional skills in game design and game engine use and 3D modelling and animation. Modules are equally divided into technical focus and theoretical focus, with an additional emphasis on core elements such as visual literacy skills and knowledge of the background and history of games and game development.
Students who have achieved at least 120 credit points at Level 4 may exit the programme and are eligible for the award of Certificate of Higher Education.

Major subjects include the continuation if skill-building in core practical and technical areas, taking skills further into Script programming and group development projects, as well as in 3D modelling for real-time and multimedia projects. Modules continue to build on the core skills of 3D graphics and programming, as well as underpinning this development practice with an industry focus.
Students who have achieved at least 120 credit points at Level 5 may exit the programme and are eligible for the award of Diploma of Higher Education. Stage 3 [FHEQ Level 6] By the end of this stage, you will be able to critically review, consolidate and extend a considerable specialist knowledge in games and game development, and demonstrate the successful application of this to your own research-based and self-directed projects.
