Dept Marketing Statement
The Art and Design: Games and Playable Media (AGPM) Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree at UC Santa Cruz focuses on the creation of novel game systems, spaces, and configurations that can produce broad ranges of player experiences, for a wide variety of purposes. It does this through:

courses in related theory, history, and critical interpretation;
   courses that take a practice-based approach to experimental game creation;
   courses that provide a foundation in working with game media forms;
   courses that provide a foundation in working with game technical materials.

This degree complements the Computer Science: Computer Game Design (CSGD) Bachelor of Science (B.S.), which focuses particularly on the technical aspects of game development. The B.A. focuses more on experience design (in particular) as well as on history, theory, and media creation-while still taking advantage of courses developed for the B.S. and creating a shared community with those students.

Students in the AGPM major learn to understand game design as an art in and of itself, positioned within the context of a number of more disciplinary approaches. Furthermore, students understand game design as a practice of creation, within a much larger and deeper social and historical context.

The AGPM B.A. in the Arts Division ensures that students have the needed programming skills, and equally importantly, that they meld such technical skills with critical and historical understanding, which is essential for the production of socially conscious, inclusive, and emotionally engaging games.

AGPM Program Values:

As a community we are committed to equity, inclusion, social and environmental justice. As an intersectional feminist program we recognize this is a process that must be grounded in shared leadership and radical gentleness.

In our work as students, faculty, and staff we embody the values of honesty, kindness, and critical thinking while maintaining a nurturing environment with a specific focus on health and well-being, critical consciousness, and growth.

We are committed to sustaining a program that is pro-LGBTQ+, anti-racist and anti-oppression. This work requires a proactive approach to sustainability and accountability, and ultimately relies on our shared experience and solidarity.
