Game Design & Interactive Experiences Program

A game asks a player to play. But what happens when the same ideas are used to create something that is not a traditional game? An interactive story. An immersive digital world. An AR experience. A virtual environment. A simulation. The boundaries between these forms are becoming less clear.

This is where game design meets interactive experience design. The programme begins with the foundations of game design: player behaviour, gameplay mechanics, systems, storytelling, and level design. These ideas explain how people respond to rules, choices, challenges, and digital spaces.

The focus then becomes wider. Interaction is no longer only about winning or losing. It may be about exploring a world, making a choice, following a story, solving a problem, or responding to an environment. Interactive media and game design therefore require a wider view of how people experience digital content.

That wider view brings different disciplines together. Level design shapes space. Narrative design gives experiences meaning. UI/UX helps people understand how to interact. Game engines turn concepts into working environments. AR and VR introduce another layer by placing the user inside the experience.

Projects across these areas help build that connection. Game concepts, level designs, narrative work, prototypes, and interactive experiences become part of the learning process. The emphasis stays on testing ideas and improving them rather than treating every project as a finished product from the start.

The broader training also supports portfolio development. Instead of showing only one type of work, the final portfolio can demonstrate different ways of thinking about games, interaction, and immersive digital experiences.
