Overview

The Game Development Major is offered by Hartwick College. Our hybrid program gives you the skills to design a game in a project-based, portfolio-building major.

Key Facts

Whether you want to build the next hit mobile game, challenging puzzles, fighters or dazzling MMORPG, our game development minor will train you in all aspects of programming, from system design to product development and promotion. And it’s not just programming and software. Artists, animators, writers and voice actors are all needed in the industry too. Our program helps you learn not just how to create games, but understand the culture behind them, giving you a fuller picture of how and why people play the games you’ll create. You’ll learn to build on the Unity engine, the #1 most used game development engine in the world, as well as program in Python, C#, Javascript and other varied languages. You’ll also learn web design, app development and user experience design, which broaden your career opportunities even beyond gaming.
