    Career

    Careers and outcomes

    In 2022, Queensland saw an 11% increase in full-time game-related jobs. This translated into over 300 new local positions, accounting for nearly half of all game development jobs created nationwide!

    Depending on your specialisation, you may find employment as a games programmer, games designer, simulation developer or designer, animator, film and television special effects developer, games reviewer, video game tester, sound designer, or mobile and communications developer.

    In addition, your robust design and programming skills can open up jobs such as web developer, digital product strategist, multimedia designer, software developer or technical officer.

    As a graduate of the Bachelor of Science, you will be skilled in many aspects of scientific study, depending on your major. Refer to the individual courses for details of career outcomes for each discipline area. Careers might also include science writing, teaching, policy development, or commercialisation and management of biological products and processes.

    Research pathways

    You may wish to take your passion further and extend your studies with an honours research program.

    Honours is an ideal pathway for high-achieving graduates to enter the doctoral program (PhD), and provides a wider range of career opportunities including research, analytic or teaching positions. Consult your course coordinator in second or third year to assess what projects may be available within your areas of interest.

    To be eligible for an honours course, you must have a bachelor degree in information technology, mathematics, science or property economics (depending on the course) or its equivalent, completed within the last five years, with a minimum grade point average of 4.5 (on QUT’s 7-point scale).
