Games

I wasn't sure what I wanted to do for a long time, I loved maths and computer science so followed that through into games, I'm hoping to be a part of a big studio making games before setting up my own indie studio

Amir

Abertay University

BSc (Hons) Computer Game Applications Development

Passionate about games programming, I am constantly on the lookout for new knowledge in the field. My primary interest is in creating engaging gaming experiences. I find joy in playing story-driven games during my leisure time and have a particular interest for the nostalgic music of 1980s Japanese city pop. Excited to share my experiences, especially about university life, I am ready to guide and provide insights based on my journey.

Ellis

Abertay University

BA (Hons) Game Design and Production

Hi, I'm Ellis! I was a direct entrant from high school to university in 2023. I'm particularly interested in Narrative Design, Level Design, and Production in terms of studies, and I enjoy games driven by their story. I'm also a huge Star Wars fan and English Literature fan.
I'm happy to chat about my experiences with Abertay, Dundee itself, or anything else that comes to mind!

James

University of Warwick

Biochemistry (MBio)

I studied Biology, chemistry, maths and french for A levels and chose to do biochemistry at Warwick because of the opportunity to complete a paid research placement and complete your masters at the same time. I also love the campus vibes and felt very at home when I first visited. 

I am passionate about research, especially in the field of antimicrobial resistance. In the summer I will be conducting a research project using AlphaFold to model the Enzymes involved in the production of a gram-negative enterobacterial cell surface protein called the O-antigen polysaccharide. The aim of the research is to build more accurate 3D models of the enzymes involved and test different ligands to see if they can act as inhibitors. These can then be tested for the ability to form novel antibiotics. 

My career ambitions are not that clear to me yet. After my Industrial Masters I would I may want to go into a research role. However, I also have a passion for finance, so I am currently gaining experience in this industry alongside my degree so to have as many options as possible for the future.
