Overview

This is a potential research degree area, subject to the approval of the University. If you are interested in undertaking a research degree in this area.

This includes but is not limited to games for social change, game-based learning, educational games, history games, games for science communication, games for health, and games for heritage.

Postgraduate students at the University will have access to research and development opportunities, as well as contact with professionals working within the games industry. Dundee is one of the UK’s oldest and most successful games hubs, and we have longstanding relationships with local, national and international game studios.
