What are Serious Games?
Serious Games involve using the form and mechanics of games to promote, for example, learning and behavioural change. In the programme, you will learn how games can be used as powerful tools beyond entertainment – in areas such as education, training, health, and societal development.
Serious Games combine technical, pedagogical, and artistic perspectives. You will learn the entire development process for this type of game – from needs analysis and project management to launch and dissemination.
Career opportunities
The programme opens doors to jobs within game development, as well as in industries that invest in game-based solutions for learning, training, and change. You can work with everything from simulations to behavioural design in the private sector, public sector, or at a game studio.
High degree of flexibility
The third semester offers great flexibility to deepen or broaden your profile. You can choose to go on exchange to one of our partner universities around the world, take courses from the Player Experience specialisation, or participate in a game project focusing on entrepreneurship in game development.
