Education
Our laboratory specializes in developing educational courses in the field of game development and computer graphics. Since the fall of 2022, undergraduate courses have been offered in the basics of game design, narrative design, as well as fundamentals of working with Unreal Engine and Unity, supplemented by disciplines in 3D character design and AR/VR. Starting in the fall of 2023, a specialized game development track is available in the master's program based on the 'Software Engineering' program, including advanced courses in Unity and Unreal Engine, as well as the study of the architecture of game engines and graphics programming. Students are also given a unique opportunity to write their thesis and dissertation on game-related topics.
Mentoring of gamedev projects
The mentoring program for novice game developers and researchers at GameLab KBTU is aimed at supporting both team and individual projects. The program offers competent support in project management, assistance with production, promotion, finding investments, and development opportunities. For each resident of the mentoring program, a roadmap is developed, expected results are discussed, and regular meetings are held throughout one academic year.
The terms of participation:
