Overview

Ten years ago, faculty from the School of Computing and the Division of Film Studies formed the Entertainment Arts & Engineering programme, now Utah Division of Games, to address a growing student population that wanted to study games and game making.

Students studying computer science and film came together in a handful of shared courses to learn the myriad facets of entertainment technology, as well as gain practice with new technical skills inside a rigorous academic experience. Over the intervening decade the Utah Division of Games and its course offerings have grown steadily, and the professional and scholarly study of Games has become firmly established as a discrete academic discipline.
