The Bachelor of Innovation™ in Game Design and Development (GDD) provides students with a firm foundation in the basics of game design and development while also giving them the flexibility to pursue their special interests through concentration courses. In addition, students learn the business and communication background required for working effectively in the interdisciplinary teams that are the norm in game design and development. The Bachelor of Innovation™ in Game Design and Development therefore provides students with the technical, business, and communication background to work on innovative game design and development projects, including the ability to: 1. recognize the broader issues in GDD-related problems, 2. understand the technological, business, legal and societal constraints affecting this technology, 3. communicate the key issues, needs, potential options, and final solution to GDD challenges. The program seeks to prepare students for successful careers and lifelong learning, whether they form their own companies or pursue traditional corporate employment.
