What it isYou earn both a teaching degree and a university degree in computer science at the same time, finishing in four years instead of five. Unlike separate education programs, this concurrent stream lets you study your subject deeply while training to teach it, so you graduate ready to teach high school computer science. It suits people who know they want to teach a specific subject and want to avoid extra years of study.You learn to design and code video games, combining programming skills with game design and storytelling. This program emphasizes building complete games from concept to finished product, rather than studying general computer science. It suits people who want to work in the game industry and have both technical problem-solving skills and creative ideas.You study how to create video games from start to finish, learning programming, visual design, animation, sound, and storytelling. Unlike a pure computer science degree, this program balances technical skills with creative and business thinking, so you learn game engines, art, and how to actually launch a game. It suits people who want hands-on work making games rather than working only on backend code or studying game theory in isolation.
