Ever wondered how your favourite video games are developed? As a software developer and computer programmer, you can help turn an idea into a mobile game or video. With increasing opportunities in this growing industry, this programme will help you gain the skills needed to work in both the international games industry and Information Technology (IT) industry.
In this Degree programme, you will learn game software design, and the development and processes involved in creating computer, mobile and video games. You will also explore 3D graphics and animation, game mechanics, game software development and production, user interface design for games, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and interaction design. In the final year of your programme, you will take part in an IT Professional Practice Project unit, which includes working in a team with other students and consulting with real clients.
The programme can be completed in 16-24 months instead of 28-36 months. Applicants with a Polytechnic Diploma may be exempted from up to 12 units and can gain entry to Year 2 of the programme. Applicants with a Murdoch University-recognised Kaplan Diploma or a private Diploma may be exempted from up to 8 units and can also gain entry to Year 2 of the programme.
