Course Overview
About BA (Hons) Computer Games Art
The BA (Hons) Computer Games Art degree is offered by University for the Creative Arts and taught from the Aldgate campus in London (The Amp, 41-71 Commercial Road, Whitechapel, E1 1LA). It is a full-time weekday bachelor's course.
Games art pathways focus on the visual side of interactive entertainment — storytelling through character, environment, and asset design — rather than pure programming or commercial management. This page describes only what is: award title, university, Aldgate London campus, full-time weekday mode, and Computing categorisation.
If you are comparing creative computing options in East London, note that this Art title is separate from the sibling Computer Games Design course at the same campus. AF Education can help eligible students understand next steps for UCA/LCCA applications and how Student Finance England may apply to undergraduate study, without guaranteeing any particular funding outcome.
Creative computing at Aldgate sits under the LCCA UCA partnership, separate from LCCM music campuses further south. Keep Games Art on your shortlist only if visual development is the priority; switch to the Design page when systems and player experience matter more than art craft.
BA (Hons) Computer Games Art at University for the Creative Arts is eligible for Student Finance England funding: a tuition fee loan of up to £9,790 per year (2026/27) paid directly to the university, plus a maintenance loan of up to £14,135 per year (London, household-income based) for your living costs.
