SYLLABUS

Practical training is a key part of our approach. Students work on collaborative projects that simulate real-life scenarios in the video game industry, facing the challenges of teamwork, project management and tight deadlines. These projects allow students to develop their professional portfolio, showcasing their ability to take a project from initial idea to final implementation. This portfolio not only reflects their technical talent, but also their creative ability and experience working in a professional environment.

Upon completion of the program, students will be prepared to face the challenges of an industry that is constantly evolving. They will have the skills necessary to work in video game development studios, whether in large companies, in independent studios or even to launch their own projects.

The video game industry is one of the most dynamic and promising industries globally. It offers exciting opportunities for those willing to innovate and push the boundaries of what is possible.
