What you study	Computer Games Computer Science	Computer Animation and Visual Effects Design Fine Art Information Systems
What it is	You study how to design and build video games using programming and computer science principles. Unlike a general computer science degree, this program focuses specifically on game development, covering topics like graphics, game engines, physics, and interactive design. It suits students who want to code but are drawn to games as their field, and includes work experience terms with game studios or tech companies.	Digital Futures is a design and fine arts program where you study visual storytelling through digital tools and media, combining animation, graphic design, coding, and art. Unlike traditional design or fine art streams, it's built around interdisciplinary collaboration and real-world projects that blend artistic creativity with digital technology and communication. It suits people who want to create visually, think critically about media, and work across both artistic and technical domains.
