After years of research, the Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology is officially recruiting students for its Game Design and Development major with 200 enrollment slots.
The program is expected to provide training over four years, targeting two job groups: game designers and game developers, who will be able to work at game studios in Vietnam or proactively start their own businesses with their own games.
The academy plans to design a four-year, eight-semester program in Game Design and Development with 135 credits. The program structure is a harmonious combination of technology and social sciences such as psychology, culture, economics , and especially knowledge of law and security.
The school plans to recruit students through four methods: direct admission; admission based on scores from the aptitude and thinking skills assessment exams of Hanoi National University, Ho Chi Minh City National University, and Hanoi University of Science and Technology; combined admission; and admission based on high school graduation exam results.
