Computer Games Modelling and Animation, BA Hons FullTime

The course was incredible to journey through. I was able to cover a plethora of subject learning to be a games artist, and to be able to specialise into Level Design through my own studies. The course is broad giving you that flexibility to either focus on a specific area or to cover lots of bases. Job prospect are slim as most industry will only hire you after completion of the degree, but they try to keep engaged with the industry and offer talks and briefs. There were some issues in my 3rd year with a change of teaching location and things not being set up properly until much later in the year. On top of a large team project for the final submission that was very tough to manage. But all in all I still am at the University now doing a MA course read more

I love computer science. The course starts out with the bare bones basics of how computers work and how it links in with logic. It soon progresses and we are taught lots of programming skills. read more
