Program Mission, Goals, and Outcomes

Program Mission

The mission of the Game Development and Simulation Programming bachelor鈥檚 degree (GDS BS) program is to provide an advanced program to prepare students to become professional programmers working in visual arts, audio-video technology or the simulation industry, and to prepare students for further education at the master鈥檚 level.

Through a combination of theory, hands-on state-of-the-art laboratory experiences, small class sizes led by experienced instructors, and a capstone project, the program emphasizes the application of knowledge to the design and development of games and simulations.

Program Goals

The GDS BS program will provide the opportunities:

1. To learn the development life cycle from design to production, including storytelling, project management, puzzle design, storyboarding and documentation for all genres. Students will learn how new project proposals are approved.
2. To learn 2D and 3D modeling and graphics programming, including sprites, scrolling, collision detection and sound effects using industry-standard graphics libraries.
3. To learn the latest techniques of advanced programming including algorithms and data structures, artificial intelligence, pattern-based design, network, Internet and mobile programming as well as emerging audio-video technology.
4. To learn game mathematics, including geometry, algebra, matrices, physics, collision detection, lighting and shading.
5. To develop a capstone project incorporating all of the above skills.
6. To instill in the student a sense of commitment to the game programming profession鈥檚 core values and ethics.

Program Outcomes
