STUDENTS' OPINION

It is a two-year master's degree where you cover a little of all areas of game development, which makes it easier to know what part you want to dedicate yourself to and, especially, to understand the work of other departments. Learning from great professors and experience in class projects helped me a lot to enter the industry.

This master's degree has a team of luxury professionals with a lot of experience in the sector, from whom I certainly learned a lot. I learned what I came to learn, and much more.

In addition to technical knowledge, this master's degree taught me how important it is to learn to work and coordinate as a team, something fundamental in the video game industry.

I am very grateful to have been a student of this master's degree, as it offers all the necessary tools and a pleasant professional education to enter the video game industry. It is accessible, allowing everyone to take it, in addition to being able to touch all areas that encompass the development of a video game. I was able to create, together with my team, my first video game, besides having contacts in the industry. Thanks to this acquired knowledge, I can work in what I really like: creating videogames.

From this master's degree I take with me the colleagues I met, with whom I learned the importance of teamwork, and many professors with great experience in the sector, who inspired me and guided me on my way. Thanks to them I took my first steps in the industry and I hope not to stop now.

There is a real link between this master's degree and the video game industry. The institution and its members make a constant effort to bring professionals from the sector, bring their knowledge and create a contact between students and companies that give opportunities to students in a very competitive industry.

One of the main contributions of the master's degree to my career has been the opportunity to learn about the different intricacies that make up the development of video games through its subjects and to know the point of view of students from different specialties, thus increasing my knowledge of other areas, being able to see with perspective the work done by them. Combining this experience with the choice of a specific area and doing business practices in a real environment has opened the way for the beginning of my professional career in the video game industry.
