Media Technology and Games



Passionate about games

The Media Technology and Games programme (MTG) provides a core education for those wanting to do research on computer games, design them, or build them.

The programme offers two branches: Design and Analysis or Technology. Students choose one branch, but collaborate across the two areas.
The Games programme is a two-year, international, English taught programme.
