Global demand for Unity developers is growing fast in the technology and video game industry. Real-time 3D (RT3D) is one of the most in-demand tech skills and has one of the highest forecasted growth rates — over 70% in the next 10 years [Burning Glass].
The 30-week Unity Game Development Bootcamp is a career-focused program that prepares learners to enter the 3D development industry. Throughout the bootcamp, students will learn object-oriented and data-driven programming to build applications that communicate with online APIs, servers and databases. Students will finish the bootcamp with nine portfolio-worthy projects.
The Bootcamp is a project-based learning experience that will equip you with nine portfolio projects. You will create eight interactive projects that align with each learning module and a final capstone project. For your capstone project, you will use the concepts you’ve learned throughout the course to make your own idea come to life! You will also have the chance to pitch your idea to industry leaders and get feedback to improve your project.
Learning outcomes from the bootcamp include:
- Foundational skills to use Unity and create exciting real-time 3D experiences.
- Learn the basics of C#, a programming language commonly used to create games.
- Understand the process of crafting an application from start to finish, including industry-standard and Agile Practices.
- Learn to leverage third-party tools like Python, SQL, and databases to include multiplayer and data analytics into your game development process.
- Learn the benefits of cross-platform game development which allows you to code once and release your game on a range of platforms including mobile, console, AR/VR, and PC.
