Whether you’re interested in creative coding, digital art, electronic music, or app and games development, this degree will prepare you for a technology-focused career in the creative industries.
- BSc Creative Computing helps you develop the creative, technical and critical thinking skills essential for a career in creative technology and related areas – whether you're interested in app and games development, audio-visual effects, social media, digital art or digital advertising.
- You’ll learn creative technology skills from the ground up. You don't need to know how to code before you join the course: we begin with the basics and build you up to a professional industry standard.
- We’ll teach you multiple coding languages, covering areas such as graphics and sound, physical computing, creative AI and full-stack web development.
- The degree will nurture your development not just as a technical expert, but also as a creative thinker, allowing you to learn and explore through a combination of technology and imagination.
- This degree is hands-on and practical from the start. You’ll create your own games, apps, digital artwork and interactive music systems. By working on practical projects throughout your degree you’ll build a relevant skillset for your future career.
- In your third year, you'll have the opportunity to undertake a year-long industry placement (making this programme four years full-time, or six years part-time). This gives you valuable experience to build confidence and contacts, further develop your skills and industry insight, and enhance your career prospects.
