The Game Design Certificate allows students to acquire in-demand skills in game design and development. After completing the core group of three courses, which offer foundational knowledge in game theory, game history, and game development techniques, the student may choose a fourth course to deepen their knowledge in one of these areas. Students are encouraged to have previous experience in coding either through the Creative Coding Certificate or other computer science and development training.
