What will I learn?

The Game Development specialization is designed to give students a command of programming in C and C plus as well as other scripting languages (such as Unreal Script, XML, Lua and Python are commonly used in game development) associated with game development. The students will learn how the system architecture for games is designed with various considerations in mind such as the target platform and 2D or 3D graphics. Students will learn how to design and create their own game engines as well as how to program the game logic that uses those engines. Upon graduation, a student from the Game Development specialization will have completed both game modification projects and a number of games they have programmed from scratch and implemented on multiple platforms.

Entry requirements

For international students

All students who apply to NJIT must submit an official high school transcript in English. When evaluating your application for undergraduate admission, we are interested in understanding how you challenged yourself relative to the curriculum that was available at your school and the trends in your performance - especially your grades in math, science, and English. Your completed coursework should include English Composition, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Chemistry and Physics. We also consider the GPA that is indicated on your high school transcript. We look for students in the top 25 percent of their class. For schools that don't use a ranking system, we consider a 3.0 GPA or higher to be equivalent.

*There may be different IELTS requirements depending on your chosen course.
