MSc in Advanced Game Programming
Within the MSc in Media Technology, the main focus of this course is on teaching the production of realistic game environments, aiming to develop high-quality game programming talents.
Students will learn different game programming techniques and deployment strategies (including console game platforms Xbox, PlayStation, Switch; online gaming platforms like Steam, WebGL, as well as online MMORPG games; mobile platforms such as iOS and Android) and try to program games using various engines, kits, and CG models during the course.
At the same time, students will work closely with technical artists and other CG producers to gain a better understanding of the game production process. Ultimately, students will apply what they have learned to actual game development.

What does game development entail?
The game development process involves many steps and aspects. Students will be given all-rounded training on game development with a major focus on programming. Apart from programming, students will learn to use modeling and art tools for the creation of game artwork and 3D assets. Game logic, 3D mathematics, computer graphics, scene management, game AI etc. are also crucial parts to game development that students will practice on.
