Overview

Game Design with a Foundation Year 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 is coursework heavy, with lab sessions each week and a substantial individual project in the final stage.

Tuition ranges from £17,100 to £29,800 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.
