Ontario College Advanced Diploma in Game - Programming (T194)

The three-year Game – Programming advanced diploma program will give you the technical skills you need to succeed in the growing gaming industry. You’ll learn the “language” of gaming (C and C), artificial intelligence, 3D graphics and more. The video game industry continues to evolve rapidly, and today’s game programmers are expected to do far more than write code. In our three-year Game Programming advanced diploma program, you’ll build the technical and creative skills needed to develop modern games across multiple platforms and engines while working in production-style development environments. From gameplay systems and multiplayer networking to graphics programming, simulation, and engine development, the program emphasizes hands-on learning through projects that reflect real-world industry workflows. Throughout the program, you’ll work extensively with technologies such as Unreal Engine, Unity, DirectX, C, and C# while building portfolio-ready games and systems.
