Computer Science (with a Placement Year), BSc Hons FullTime

Some great subjects but other modules lacking behind greatly. Digital technologies and Commercial computing are placeholders for accreditation and a waste of resources and money. Others like Cloud, web dev and networking are really good and teach you pracically. Only shame is the teachers for certain courses, especially Supplies. read more

Computer Games Programming, BSc Hons FullTime

Can't say much here, the first year is just teaching everyone the basics of the subject which I find extremely boring but that's how it goes anywhere. The lecturers are super friendly and have humour which is always great. The classmates aren't so great, no one seems like a person I could get along with, but that's probably because I only sit with my friends. Unfortunately, with the direction the Games industry is going at the moment I doubt I'd get a decent career. read more

When I look back at my time at Staffs, I won't be proud to have gone here, but I will be proud of having been taught by Joe, Jared, Mel, Tom, Emily, etc. They are so passionate, so knowledgeable that I know my future is in good hands, their hands. read more

Computer Gameplay Design and Production, BSc Hons FullTime

So far, the course is looking really good. They teach from the basics upwards so even if you have no experience in game engines etc, like me, you can learn and figure it out. The teaching is also done in a really informative way and the way to submit work is fairly straightforward read more
