The aim of this programme is to provide students with knowledge of advanced computer science topics, including recent research topics, and the necessary supervision to assist them in going through the scientific research process in relation to one of them. The topics include, but are not limited to: software system requirements specification and verification, computer graphics, computer security, and concurrent/distributed systems.
The subject areas of this programme correspond to the Departments of the Faculty, and to the research interests and activities within each, including civil, structural, building engineering, architectural, building and conservation science, built heritage, architectural and urban design, planning and construction management, and interdisciplinary themes, in which guidance and supervision can be offered, and subject to the availability of resources as determined by the Faculty Board.
The subject areas of this programme correspond to the Departments of the Faculty, and to the research interests and activities within each and inter-disciplinary themes, in which guidance and supervision can be offered, and subject to the availability of resources as determined by the Faculty. Students typically follow a short directed reading component, deliver a presentation related to the research, and embark on the preparation of a dissertation, based on work of an advanced or original nature undertaken by them.
The programme is taught by experts from a variety of fields, providing students with diverse perspectives on game creation and criticism. As digital games continue to evolve, the programme will also expand to provide the skills and knowledge needed in industry, independent development, and academic games research.
The Research M.Sc. in Digital Games is intended for students with experience in professional game development or academic research. The course is offered on a full-time basis only and is taken over two years. During this time students complete a research project while taking taught units (30 ECTS) complementing their research project (90 ECTS) as advised by their supervisor.

Students are required to write a dissertation based on research work of an advanced and original nature performed by them during the Course. The dissertation, to which 80 credits are assigned, will describe this research and present results and conclusions in a scholarly manner.
The work should demonstrate that through the project, the student has gained experience in Food Science research and is able to set up a research problem, plan experiments and/or observations, present and analyse data and draw logical conclusions from the results obtained.
