PPD Development

University Courses

1.

 Bachelors in computer game development.

The course consists of full time study, attending lectures and laboratory practice, studying, creating and learning computer game code and various other subjects and modules, learning how to become a computer games programmer, the course is based at abertay university, the course lasts for about 4 years, and is difficult to attain, but I'd love to do this course primarily because I'd like to chase my dreams of being a games programmer.

2.

 the second course I'd pick is the Bachelors for Games design and Production management, which more focuses on the design, pitching and management side of the industry, learning something like that would be very advantageous, and I would passionately enjoy doing it, the course also lasts for 4 years, and I'd like to join it because I'm very passionate about games design on a whole.

these first two courses are located at http://www.abertay.ac.uk/ 

3.

 the 3rd course I'd like to do is a BA in games design at the University of Sheffield Hallam, they have various console labs and development kits, where students can work on various modules including animation and design, they can also opt for an extra year for a work placement which normally leads into employment in the games industry, as stated before I'd like to do this because I'm very passionate about games design.

Developing Personal Skills

I have also been considering doing a course in Brighton and staffordshire.

One other course I am highly interested in, is a course in lancashire

http://www.uclan.ac.uk/courses/bsc_hons_computer_games_development.php

which focuses on game mechanics, building direct X engines, and building AI programs.

We were also asked to create a brief list on things to do blog wise, in which I only need to do some character development and sound downloads for trailer for luke, and finish off Marnies flash.
