Course Description:

Programming is becoming ever more influential as we delve deeper into the internet of things, such as connected cars, and rely even more on computers. Exiting high school with the skills needed to excel in this technologically dependent world is crucial, now more than ever.

However, programming can be an extremely dense topic for engineers, let alone a college student. With this Video Game Design course, programming ideas and structures are delivered in an intuitive yet not watered down format that allows students to prepare themselves for the world outside of high school while also having fun and producing something they can be proud of.
