  • Named One of the Top Five Game Design Schools in the World by Electronic Gaming Monthly, Full Sail University offers a comprehensive selection of degree programs designed to teach you the skills you’ll need to create the next generation of great video games. No matter what aspect of the game production process interests you, Full Sail can provide you with the tools needed to help turn your ideas into playable games.

    For artists interested in becoming animators, modelers, riggers, or level designers, our Game Art Bachelor’s Degree Program focuses on 3D art and content creation. With this program’s heavy emphasis on foundational art skills and their application in the world of games, you’ll be taught the artistic and technical skills that can bring a game to life.


    If the virtual nuts and bolts of video games are more appealing, Full Sail's Game Development Bachelor’s Degree Program covers the coding, physics, and scripting languages used by game designers, programmers, and technical directors. The program digs deep into the technical side of game creation, and you’ll learn what it takes to design, create, and code games from scratch.

    And for those interested in stepping into a production role on a title, our Game Design Master’s Degree Program teaches the project management and team leadership skills you’ll need to succeed. This 12-month program will have you collaborating with and managing students from our other game degree programs to conceptualize and creating a fully playable game.

    Passionate gamers from across the globe come to Full Sail University each year to learn the latest in professional software production. Our graduates have gone on to garner successful careers with major gaming studios, contributing to a variety of best-selling console and PC titles like Madden NFL 09, Call of Duty: World at War, The Simpsons Game, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09, and James Bond: Quantum of Solace.
