Game Development

Description: Playing a video game is fun. Building a video game as part of a dynamic studio team is some of most exciting work you can imagine. Game development requires serious skills including programming, software engineering, and modeling; applying the latest techniques in Artificial Intelligence, Computer Graphics, Human Computer Interaction and other important areas of Computer Science. In order to succeed in this rapidly-changing field, you must have the necessary foundations, and you must be prepared to be a life-long learner. The BCS Specialization in Game Development is a four-year program that provides the foundations necessary for a rewarding career in the exciting field of game development.
