Computer Science with Games Programming with Foundation Year

About this course

Computer science with games programming is a degree that gives you the rigorous technical foundation of computer science alongside specialist skills in the programming techniques used to create interactive game experiences. Computer science at its core is the study of computation, covering algorithms, data structures, programming languages, software engineering, artificial intelligence, and the mathematical principles that determine what computers can and cannot do. Games programming adds to this the specific challenges of real-time rendering, physics simulation, game engine architecture, input handling, and optimisation that make modern games technically demanding to create. At the University of Huddersfield you will study this four-year full-time programme, which includes a foundation year, a sandwich year, and a work placement. The foundation year ensures that students are academical
