Abertay University has once more secured its reputation as a world leader in video games design, ranked the number one International School in the Princeton Review's latest global league table.
Abertay's undergraduate and postgraduate programmes have been placed 8th and 7th worldwide, respectively, making it Europe's number one choice for the next generation of game developers.
Since 1997, Abertay boasts a history of innovation that led it to be the first world university to confer degrees in video games.
Today, it still takes the lead with cutting-edge programs such as Professional Masters in Games Development and BSc (Hons) Computer Games Technology. These courses subject students to practical experience and industry-specific learning, setting them up for an industry career with leaders such as Ubisoft, Sony, EA, and Rockstar.
Abertay's world-class facilities are an important aspect of its success. The university boasts one of Europe's biggest PlayStation 5 development laboratories, a state-of-the-art Virtual Production Research Environment (ViPRE) laboratory, and an advanced Development Studio for rapid prototyping.
In addition, there is a Competitive Gaming Laboratory and a Usability Laboratory to prepare students with the ability to refine their skills in real-time industry settings.
Alongside education, Abertay is also at the heart of the wider gaming industry.
The university is a lead partner in the UK-wide £75.6 million CoSTAR Network, which aims to push the boundaries of games, screen, and immersive tech innovation.
In partnership with Dundee and Edinburgh through the recently launched CoSTAR Realtime Lab, Abertay is supporting creative and tech companies to produce cutting-edge projects that are driving the boundaries of digital entertainment forward.
Based in Dundee, the city that's famous for having created classic games such as Grand Theft Auto and Minecraft, Abertay sits at the centre of a buzzing creative network.
Most industry professionals working in Dundee's game sector are themselves Abertay graduates, yet another indication of the university's role in helping to determine the future of game design.
As technology advances, Abertay reconfigures its research and teaching to be ahead of the curve, so that the next generation of game developers, designers, and artists can be leading players in their sector.
