Year 1, UAL L3 Diploma
UCAS Points – Pass (36) Merit (60) Distinction (84)
The first year of the course introduces students to Programming, Art, Design, Audio, Game Theory and Professional Practice. These topics are delivered through a series of projects that help to build students' confidence in each area and make them ready for their Final Major Project where they will create and have the opportunity to publish their own original games.

Year 2, UAL L3 Extended Diploma
UCAS Points – Pass (72) Merit (120) Distinction (168)
As students progress onto Year 2 they will be encouraged to focus on a discipline of their choice and develop their skills even further. They will develop their own professional portfolio, consider career options and progression routes, improve their specialist skills and look to release games through our very own games company, Rizing Games.
