Are you fascinated by the world of computer games, and do you want to turn your passion into your profession? Decide on your class: you can choose between game art and games programming.
Members of the “game-art species” are good at drawing, love environments and creatures and enjoy creating new worlds. Members of the “programming species” love to breathe life into worlds by using logic. Whether you pick the keyboard or the drawing tablet, both classes cover aspects of game design.
Which path will you choose?

Our Games Departments
Our games departments include Games Programming and Game Art & 3D Animation. Although both departments deal with video games, they could not be more different. While Games Programming lessons focus on coding and functionality, Game Art & 3D Animation focuses on visual representation, the visual art. Of course, the collaboration of both disciplines makes sense, and the integration of other departments also happens often, because expertise from all kinds of media industries gathers right on campus. Thus, new opportunities for joint, interdisciplinary projects arise again and again. Community 100 per cent!

During my time at SAE Cologne I have grown as a person so much. It was the starting point of my career in the games industry. It’s where I started to learn how to develop games, how to accomplish projects together as a team, and I was given the opportunities to establish my own network inside the industry. At SAE you have all the tools to learn independently, but you are never left on your own. You will always have supporting supervisors and students around you. It’s a colourful mix of younger and older students from entry to professional level with different backgrounds.

My path into the games industry started here
It has always been a big dream of mine to become a game developer. I took my first steps towards realising this dream at the SAE Institute Berlin.
Thanks to the competence and patience of the lecturers and supervisors, I was able to learn the necessary skills to develop real computer games.
I really liked the large and very free practical component. In the projects, the teams had a great deal of creative freedom.
This allowed us to give free rein to our imagination and learn the things that interested us the most.
