Abertay University鈥檚 School of Design and Informatics has been included in for the first time.

In addition to breaking into the ranking at institutional level, Abertay鈥檚 games design courses were also ranked inside The Rookies global top 20.

The Rookies provides a trusted guide for prospective students seeking educational opportunities in the creative arts, helping them to identify schools that consistently produce top-tier talent across a diverse range of creative disciplines such as animation, game development, concept art, or any other creative field.

To formulate the rankings, a panel of 180 industry judges are asked to review portfolio work from more than 5,500 students participants, looking for creative skills, technical proficiency, presentation quality, diversity of skills, project complexity, raw talent, and employment potential.

Head of the Division of Games and Arts, Dr Dayna Galloway said:

Breaking into The Rookies for the first time is a huge achievement and the fact that this ranking is based on the quality of our student work is really pleasing, underlining the quality of our courses and the first-rate teaching offered by our academic staff. Abertay has always had a reputation for excellence in digital art and design and we鈥檝e achieved this by keeping pace with advances in technology, responding of the needs of industry, providing great facilities on campus and ensuring the student experience here in Dundee is second-to-none. My congratulations go to colleagues across the School and also to our talented students who should be very proud their work has been judged to be of international quality.

Lecturer Finlay Pearston who led on Abertay鈥檚 submission to The Rookies said:

It鈥檚 fantastic to see the talent of Abertay鈥檚 students reflected so strongly in The Rookies and to have their hard work receive the top-level recognition from industry that it deserves. Our graduates go on to work in creative studios across the world, so it鈥檚 of real importance to us that the University鈥檚 courses are seen to be held to high standard by respected external organisations such as this one.

Abertay created the world鈥檚 first video games degree in 1997 and provides graduate talent to games design studios in Dundee and other major city clusters across the world.
