Course Description:
This course will focus on understanding and developing serious games. Serious games are business-oriented. This type of game development aims to fulfil business needs rather than entertainment. Conducting business, industry-based, and professional trainings through serious game applications to provide education and business awareness is one aspect of the usefulness of these games. This course will try to introduce the concept of serious game development in the first couple of weeks. Then, the course will use the principles of object-oriented programming to enable students to construct 2D and 3D games to address a business training scenario. The course will take the first half of the semester in providing lectures and materials to enable students to develop a 2D game in addressing the considered business training scenario. In the second half of the semester, lectures and materials are provided to enable students to develop a 3D game to address the considered business training scenario.

This course will focus on advanced understanding and developing of serious games. Serious games are business-oriented. This type of game development aims to fulfil business needs rather than entertainment. Conducting business, industry-based, and professional trainings through serious game applications to provide education and business awareness is one aspect of the usefulness of these games. This course is the advanced level of game programming course in taking the previous learned programming techniques through introduction of new additional programming techniques to the next level. This course will provide lectures on advanced game mechanisms and computer graphics principles through the principles of object-oriented programming to enable students in constructing and rendering 3D games in addressing a business training scenario.

Course Description:
This course is an opportunity to investigate interactive design and front-end development as it relates to a variety media types. The use of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and JQuery is considered. Using industry standard tools, students will learn to design, implement, and refine interactive media for specific audiences. For the purpose of this class, interactive media includes a variety of software and hardware solutions that intersect the domain of human-computer interaction. Effective interactive design is often achieved by the creative application of sometimes disparate disciplines. Students should expect to incorporate their understanding of art theory, psychology, commercial business practice, and creative problem solving.
