CGPS - Computer Game and Simulation Development - Programming Track A.S.
Program Description
This degree is designed for students preparing to enter a program leading to a baccalaureate degree at a four-year college or university. Game design and development course work along with programming skills in scripting languages, C++, and Objective-C may lead the graduate into programs of study including Game Programming and Simulation Development, Computer Science, Information Systems, or other technology degrees. Students utilize industry-standard development environments, two-dimensional graphics software, scripting languages, as well as two- and three dimensional game engines to develop games and simulations in a team environment for both the personal computer and mobile platforms. Effective project management techniques are used as games are developed collaboratively. Program Objectives
