GAME STUDIES faculty and administrative staff oversee our education programs, research grants, and other campus and community initiatives, including the PbD Fall and Spring symposiums, speaking events, and student-led game initiatives.
“It is essential that game design programs are interdisciplinary.”
– Lisa Bievenue, Director of Informatics Programs
“Game design is not restricted to games courses. I incorporate it into every course I teach, no matter the subject.”
– Dr Judith Pintar, Director of Game Studies
“Games students need to be able to use the game technologies of tomorrow.”
– Dan Cermak, Game Design Instructor
“Games are great for teaching, training, and assessment. Designing games teaches students about themselves and the world.”
