Game Engine
The fully funded Game Engine Skills Bootcamp is a 12-week programme designed to equip you with the practical skills required in the gaming industry.
​
This Skills Bootcamp introduces Unity Game Engine, which is widely used in the games industry to develop interactive applications such as computer games.
​
Other rapidly growing industries such as cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) will also be covered on the Bootcamp in the context of Game Engine product development as, over time, these are becoming more and more interlinked with the rise of AI tools such as Chat GPT and cloud streaming of interactive content. ​
When is the Bootcamp delivered?
The Bootcamp will be delivered remotely for 12 weeks, from Monday to Friday, from 9:30am to 4:30pm (including both learning and self-learning hours).
Apply now for the December 16th intake.
