UMBC earned an Honorable Mention on the Princeton Review’s list, “Top Undergraduate Schools to Study Video Game Design for 2012.”
The list salutes 32 undergraduate schools and 18 graduate schools for their outstanding game design education programs.
The Princeton Review chose the schools based on a survey it conducted in 2011-12 academic year of administrators at 150 institutions offering video game design coursework and/or degrees in the United States and Canada. The survey which included more than 50 questions, covered a wide range of topics from academics, curriculum, and faculty credentials to graduates’ employment and career achievements. School selections were based on a comprehensive analysis of data that analyzed the quality of the curriculum, faculty, facilities, and infrastructure, plus the school’s scholarships, financial aid and career services.
