This bit of breaking news is almost a month old, but I haven’t seen it posted around.
Back in December NYU announced the creation of the NYU Game Center, which will focus on research, design and development of video games. So far it seems that it’s just a banner under which all of the existing NYU game-design related courses, which are offered in its other technology programs, will be collated, but there is plans to add new ones in the coming year.
From the NYU press release:
Beginning in spring 2009, the Center will offer a series of talks and panel discussions that will be open to the public and featuring leading game designers. In fall 2009, it will offer undergraduate courses to 10-12 students a year who may choose a minor, major or double major. Graduate courses are slated for fall 2010. Approximately six graduate students a year will be admitted to the two-year Master’s program or certificate program.
