The Faculty of History at the University of Gdańsk will offer a new, innovative course: Designing historical games. The only such studies in Poland will be launched in the academic year 2024/25. “Gamescaves, team projects, but also reliable historical knowledge – this is only a small fraction of what awaits students of the new course”, announces the university. 

The degree course prepares students for building an international career. Nearly 40 % of subjects are taught in English. The knowledge gained in subjects such as career planning, basics of entrepreneurship and basics of project management will also help graduates in the labour market.

Graduates will also gain knowledge and skills in the creation of board games, role-playing games or city games. Students will learn the secrets of constructing a storyline (Narrative Deisgn), handling words (Technical Writing, Digital Game Writing), creating game mechanics and design patterns, and applying generative artificial intelligence.
