- 6.0 level requirementThis is the English requirement the university publishes for study at this level, not one printed for this course. Most departments ask for exactly this and some ask for more, so it tells you what to aim at rather than what you will be asked for. Send us the course and we will confirm the requirement it actually sets, including any minimum in each paper.

Overview
Computing for Digital Media and Games is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.
Teaching in Computer Games and Animation lets you specialise partway through, usually between security, data and software engineering.
The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £23,500 to £27,300 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.
Send us your transcript and English result and we will list the departments that would consider you, with the entry condition on each.

Careers opportunities
Employers in this field test what you can build, not what you were taught, and a technical interview is standard. A portfolio of projects, open source contributions or an industrial placement carries more weight than the grade in almost every hiring process.
