Games Art BA (Hons)

The University of Northampton’s BA Games Art degree focuses on the visual side of the video game industry, including specialist areas such as concept art, UI, 3D modelling, environment and character design. You will be introduced to the key points in the creative process, from initial concepting through to the production of final assets, as well as the technical skills required to implement these into a working video game. The Games Art University programme has a collaborative group project module with our Games Design and Games Programming courses, so students on the Games Art course can work with programmers and designers to produce commercial quality games. The University is a member of the Unreal Academic Partner Program. The Unreal Academic Partner program helps degree-granting institutions accelerate their Unreal Engine-driven courses through exclusive benefits. These include enterprise software licenses, premium service subscriptions, co-marketing opportunities, and Marketplace credits for projects – class and research. It is only open to institutions that want to prepare the next generation of creators/developers for roles in interactive 3D.
