The transfer degree will better prepare a student for developing a more focused set of skills necessary to get an entry-level job in this highly competitive industry, by allowing students to more easily transfer to a four year school to complete a bachelor degree. There is also a Game Development Certificate available for students who wish for a more focused study of the subject.
