About this course

Is your imagination bursting with concepts for new worlds and characters? Then our practice-based BA (Hons) Games Arts degree course at UCA Farnham could be for you.

This course, which is accredited by The Rookies, focuses on workflows for 2D concept and 3D art for video games. You’ll develop skills in 3D modelling and texturing and connect them with your drawing skills to create pro-level games assets, like characters, environments and props which make your favourite games come to life.

You’ll develop your skills using world-class facilities, with high-end hardware, plus the latest software and games engines.

You’ll also benefit from opportunities to collaborate with students on our other games courses and make the most of our exceptional industry links to brands like Rebellion, SEGA, Creative Assembly, and Supermassive Games.

By the time you graduate, you’ll be ready to launch a career in the industry, whether in the UK or abroad.
