High-performance graphics and games engineering sits at the most technically demanding frontier of computer science. Where general software development often tolerates latency and inefficiency, graphics and games programming demands the opposite: real-time rendering, physics simulation, and interactive systems that must perform flawlessly at speed, often on constrained hardware. This discipline requires a deep understanding of computer architecture, algorithms, mathematics, and the specialised hardware that drives modern GPUs, alongside the software engineering skills needed to build and maintain large, complex codebases. At the University of Leeds, this programme combines a thorough computer science education with specialist expertise in graphics and games engineering. You will study the mathematics of rendering, explore how graphics pipelines work at a low level, and develop skills in
