At Suffolk New College, we equip you with the skills and knowledge you need to build a career in the games industry, whether you want to join a studio or become your own indie developer.
Our courses cover every stage of game creation, from functionality and coding to visuals, animation and sound design, giving you a strong foundation to bring your ideas to life.
Our courses are delivered at our Ipswich and Leiston campuses, using the latest industry practices and tools such as Unity, Unreal Engine, ZBrush and motion capture.
You’ll also have the chance to network with local game developers through meetups, talks and showcase events like the Game Anglia Festival.
Our games design courses give you a broad mix of creative and technical skills, allowing you to explore different pathways or specialise as your interests develop.
Many of our students go on to roles such as games designers, programmers, artists, level designers or producers, while others choose to work independently as indie developers or freelancers.
The skills you develop are also highly transferable, opening up opportunities in other creative and technical fields. These include areas such as animation, film and visual effects, graphic design, software development, UX and UI design, and digital media production.
We work with a wide range of employers to shape our courses and give students real-world experience.
