Computer Science with Games Programming

About this course

Computer science with games programming is a degree that combines the rigorous foundations of computer science with the specialist programming skills that the games industry demands. Games development is a technically exacting field: real-time rendering, physics simulation, artificial intelligence for non-player characters, networking, and the optimisation of complex systems for performance on consumer hardware all require deep programming knowledge and the ability to write efficient, maintainable code under tight constraints. The games industry in the UK is one of the most significant in the world, and the technical skills it values transfer broadly across the software sector. At the University of Huddersfield, this three-year, full-time degree develops the core foundations of computer science, including algorithms, data structures, software engineering, and programming, alongside the
