Studying Games and Esports at NTU
With the rise of independent production houses and the arrival of VR into the gaming mainstream, there’s never been a more exciting time to join the industry – so could you be the next Miyamato, Kojima or Houser?
It’s official: gaming is now a bigger worldwide business than film and music, with the sector generating $115 billion in 2018. At NTU you’ll be taught the technical and artistic skills necessary to embark on a career in the fast-paced world of games.
Depending on what course you study, you will either be based inside our £9.1million hub for digital media, at our new esports complex, Clifton Campus, or at the new Design & Digital Arts building. You will have access to virtual and augmented reality hardware and software, as well as motion capture facilities. With four major independent and AAA games companies right on our doorstep, there's no better place to start your career in the games industry.
New Design & Digital Arts Building
Launching in 2024, the new Design & Digital Arts Building will place Nottingham as a UK hub for film, television, animation, UX design, games design, graphic design, and more.
Do it for real
We’re well-connected in the world of esports, and, thanks to our world-class facilities, we've played host to the NSE British University Esports Championship Finals; the British Esports Association Student Champs Finals; and the Commonwealth Games Esports Championships. At each event, our games and esports students have played key roles.
Students from the Nottingham School of Art & Design have been working with The NUEL and GGTech to host the Amazon University Esports UK and Ireland finals, with more tournaments with The NUEL on the horizon.
