To develop a video game, you must first think of an idea: What adventures will occur, how it will be played, and what the rules, characters, scenarios and other aspects will be. Then, it is time to start the “Game Design”, one in which the game mechanics are defined and a prototype is created using a programming language. From here, the programmers are in charge of making all the design team's ideas a reality, translating them into actions that are displayed on the screen.

It is, therefore, a highly valued and well-paid job in the industry. Without them, gamers would not be able to enjoy their favorite titles. With this in mind, the Postgraduate Diploma has been devised to allow designers to specialize in fundamental aspects of programming. For this purpose, one of the most widely used development engines in the sector will be taken into account: Unity 3D Engine, on which games such as Super Mario Run, Pokemon Go and Resident Evil: Umbrella Corps, have been developed, among others.

This program provides all the knowledge and skills require to master the area.
