Master
2 years Title : Master's Degree in Digital Production
Option : Video games

From the 4th year (Master 1), students perfect their technical knowledge and develop 2D-3D projects in real time.

They also learn about the use of new technologies such as AR (Augmented Reality), VR (Virtual Reality) and development on mobile platforms (games on smartphones). At the same time, other areas of application are covered, such as gamification (the use of video game mechanics in other sectors) and research.

The final year (Master 2) is entirely devoted to producing a video game as a group, with a presentation at the end of the year to a panel of professionals working in the video games sector in France or abroad. Alongside this production, part of the course is devoted to integration into the world of work: development of a professional network, job-hunting exercises (building a career plan) and an introduction to entrepreneurship.
