The goal of the MProf in Games Development is to turn students into professional developers by placing them into a development team, with industry-relevant project goals and deliverables. The student’s team will enjoy a high level of independence in how it meets the game design briefs and how it approaches the development process. Supervision, mentorship and academic support look to emphasise the consequences of students’ decisions and processes, allowing them to experience an organic and logical development and evolution of best practices. In addition, students will develop their awareness in areas of potential innovation and research, and will be encouraged to publish their work.
