Approach:
The M.A. program Digital Games is aimed at graduates of related Bachelor’s programs such as Game Arts, Game Design, or Game Programming who seek to deepen their artistic and academic engagement with digital games as cultural and economic artifacts.
The program’s profile is defined by the close interweaving of artistic practice, academic inquiry, and professional orientation. Practice-based game development is combined with game studies, economics, and either research or teaching practice, enabling both specialization and the development of holistic game literacy. While structured courses provide a shared foundation, the program deliberately facilitates and encourages self-directed study and the independent exploration of new tools, techniques, and emerging trends. In addition, students may pursue a double degree in cooperation with Cnam-Enjmin, offering an opportunity to further strengthen their profile in an European context.
