UT Austin Camps & Youth Programs - UT Computer Science Academy for Game Development

The Academy for Game Development is suited for more experienced beginners as students will explore the world of game development, including programming, art and game design. During the program, students will work with Java-Script and Phaser. This is a two week hybrid program. The first week, July 8-12, will be held virtually and the second week, July 14-19, will be held in-person. During the second week of the program, students will get a taste of university life by learning in the Gates Dell Complex—the home of UT Computer Science. You will stay in student residence halls on campus where you will be matched with another student by age as your roommate. You can look forward to trying out real college residence hall food at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which is included. Our mentors help you get accustomed to learning on a college campus by staying in the same residence halls and accompanying you throughout your stay. Our academies boast an impressive 1:10 student to mentor ratio to make sure students are getting the most out of their time on campus.
