Game Programming
PROGRAM PREREQUISITE:
None
SHORT DESCRIPTION of PROGRAM
Students completing the Game Programming program will be well qualified in the process of designing and coding programming logic for games including coding game rules, mechanics, and simulations, to create complete coding modules and game experiences. Students will be prepared to enter the workforce as an independent game developer specializing in game programming and game play scripting.
PROGRAM LEARNING OUTCOMES
Upon successful completion of this program, students should be able to:
- Demonstrate technical proficiency in game programming including the ability to critically analyze existing techniques, develop alternative technical solutions, and execute on solutions under given technical constraints. The technical areas of expertise include but are not limited to applying physics and mathematics to game worlds, facilitating game rules, and facilitating a positive user experience.
- Demonstrate proficiency in collaborative interdisciplinary teamwork including but notlimited to the ability to communicate ideas effectively, accept and givecritiques, compromise, and the ability to critically discuss one's own work.
