Assessment note: The game design brief at Pulse College

Pulse College has published an assessment note on the game design brief. The note covers how the work is marked.

Dublin students use Market Studios. Online students receive the same brief and submit a one-page design brief and a build through the portal. Online study does not require an Irish student visa.

Degree courses are mapped to Irish NFQ levels 6 to 9. Quality and Qualifications Ireland validates programmes under the published partnership with Griffith College, in place since 2012. Avid and Unreal marks, where a course includes them, sit beside the award. They do not replace it.

The application fee is US$20 and is refunded in full if you are not accepted. Online tuition is free. Dublin studio fees are a separate published pathway.

Pulse College was founded in 1990. It teaches audio, games, film and animation. It is not a UK university and it is not a collegiate university in Durham.
