During the three-year Bachelor’s program, students learn the fundamentals of game design and develop a solid videogame culture. They learn to communicate and formalize game concepts and mechanics, developing their writing and organizational skills.
The courses and masterclasses offered during the Master’s program focus on cutting-edge topics in game and level design. Students create original, high-quality games in collaboration with the school’s video game programs.
These projects enable them to confront a context similar to that of the industry, while enjoying considerable creative freedom.
To be accepted into our video game school and on to the Game Design degree course, candidates must have a high school diploma (or equivalent) and pass the admissions test.
