Develop lists the ten university syllabuses given the Skillset tick
Today Skillset awarded its rare seal of approval to the University of Abertay Dundee's Professional Masters in Computer Games Development course.
It brings the total of Skillset accredited courses to ten. Develop has compiled the list of each, found below.
The Livingstone-Hope Review recently found that graduates from Skillset-accredited courses were nearly three times as likely to find a job in the games industry in their first six months, when compared to game dev graduates from non-accredited courses.
The list of courses follows:
BA Game Art Design, De Montfort University Leicester

BSc (Honours) Computer Games Programming, Teesside University

Hi,
Is there any list like this but regarding good USA universities?
-NoSila
Well, the University of Derby Computer Games Modeling & Animation is not Skillset accredited, but boasts strong links with local video games developers and is run by former Industry Professionals with a high application rate.
Skillset isnt everything, its what the courses produce that counts, and Derby is high on quality.
