Vision
The Game Development and Design Program strives to be one of the top undergraduate game development programs in the U.S. In order to accomplish our vision, we are merging the intellectual and creative powers of The University of Texas at Austin’s Arts and Entertainment Technologies, Computer Science, and Radio-Television-Film departments and the Texas Interactive Media Institute.
Goal
The goal of the Game Development and Design Program is to achieve two primary objectives essential to advance the interdisciplinary fields of digital interactive and immersive media, game and mobile development:
- Significantly increase the digital media workforce by graduating great talent
- Provide cutting-edge courses to bring together practitioners, academics and students with diverse backgrounds in computer science, communications, art, music, and design
