Panel discussion with Prof. Dr. Jochen Koubek from the University of Bayreuth
Bayreuth. There are two reasons to celebrate: this year, the university is celebrating its 50th anniversary and the Master's programme in Computer Game Studies is celebrating its tenth anniversary.
To mark the occasion, the university is hosting a panel discussion with Prof. Dr. Jochen Koubek, head of the programme and professor of digital media, at the ‘neuseum’ on Sternplatz on Thursday, 2 October, from 6 to 8 p.m.
The talk is entitled ‘10 Years of Computer Game Studies – Review, Successes and Outlook’ and Koubek will be answering questions about the development of the programme, the successes of students and alumni, current projects, setbacks and the future of digital game research. Above all, however, the discussion offers participants the opportunity to ask their own questions about computer game studies and the programme.
Since its inception in 2015, the degree programme has established itself as a pioneer in Germany, combining game design, game development, computer science and media studies in a unique way. Numerous alumni have since founded start-ups, developed innovative games and received national and international awards.
When: Thursday, 2 October, 6 to 8 p.m.
Where: "Neuseum" on Sternplatz (former Markgrafen bookshop)
What: Local residents can talk to members of the University of Bayreuth at "We provide answers".
Special features: No admission fees, no registration, just drop by and ask questions
