Since 2010, we have been offering the modern, practice-oriented bachelor's degree programme "Virtual Reality & Game Development", which focuses on the development and design of virtual worlds.
An exciting curriculum awaits you on your Game Art degree programme, which will prepare you for the visual design of games. You will start with the development of virtual worlds and the basics of design while carrying out practical project work. Over the course of your studies, you will deepen your knowledge of concept art, 3D modelling and game engines. In the final semesters, you will work on your final project and write your Bachelor's thesis.

In 2007, SRH University of Applied Sciences Heidelberg was one of the first universities in Germany to offer a "Game Development" degree programme. This was followed in 2010 by "Virtual Reality", the first degree programme in Germany to deal explicitly with virtual reality as a mass and entertainment medium. These years of experience, combined with the innovative CORE study model, form the foundation for the solid and practice-oriented education of our students.
Yves Masullo and Robin Mächtel show just how successful our graduates can be with their game "Orbital Bullet", which won the most important prize for games in Germany - the German Computer Game Award, in the "Prototype" category for young talent (endowed with € 15,000). Shortly afterwards, the game received another award at the GermanDevDays (endowed with €5,000).
The Gaming Aid supports young talents in the study programmes (Bachelor/Master) Game Design, Game Graphics, Interactive Narrative Design, Sound Design and Game Engineering at selected universities. You can receive up to 800 euros per month with this scholarship. In addition, you will be supported during your studies by an experienced developer studio, which will also provide the internships required for the practical part of the programme.
