In two years, you will learn to design and develop 3D animations, games and interactive environments. You will be able to complement your training with the Higher National Diploma (HND) in Creative Media Production.
Guaranteed internships. Combine your classes with real company experience thanks to our agreements.
More than 400 computers and Cintiq 22’’ graphics tablets with dedicated software, plus 1,200 m2 of workshops to bring your projects to life.
We offer exclusive scholarships to study this CFGS at our University.
Our University Campus located in the heart of Madrid is full of activities, masterclasses, catwalks, contests, fairs, events, etc. to maximise students’ creativity.
Precursors in elevating design degrees to the university level, creating the first Official Degrees in Product Design, Fashion Design, Interior Design, Video Game Design and Development or Multimedia and Graphic Design.
We have numerous agreements with some of the best universities in the world of design so that our students can incorporate international and multicultural experience into their time at university.
The very typology of our degrees allows us to use a learning methodology based on real projects. We seek your excellence.
More than 2,200 agreements signed with leading companies in the sector for the professional practice of our students; advice and exchange of experiences and research.
More than 13,000 m2 of specialised facilities with the best resources and equipment used by large companies in the sector.
The Curriculum of 3D Animation, Games and Interactive Environments Cycle is structured into 2,000 hours and divided into 2 courses.
The 2-year study plan with 2,000 hours incorporates 370 hours of Workplace Training in the 2nd year. This training can also be combined with the HND in Creative Media Production by taking two additional optional subjects per year and obtaining an additional British University Degree of extraordinary value that will provide you with knowledge of Game Design and Production. Additionally, by studying the Vocational Training Cycle together with the HND, you can access the University Degree in Game Design and Development and complete it in just two more years.
During the first course you will learn in a practical way and without previous knowledge, the basics of artistic drawing, which will help you to continue the course in digital drawing, and apply this knowledge to two-dimensional animation.
You will also start working with a 3D environment, making modeling, textures and animations. Finally, you will see the basics of programming, making 2 video games throughout the course.
In addition, you will start your labor insertion by creating your own portfolio. A necessary tool to show your work to any company.

All our CFGS start from scratch, so it is not necessary to take a specific type of baccalaureate.
It is true that due to the typology of our degrees, it is usually recommended to take a bachelor’s degree in arts or science and technology.
The entrance test aims to better understand the profile of the future student precisely to be able to offer personalized attention and, if necessary, to reinforce any previous skills such as artistic drawing.
Under no circumstances should you be concerned about your previous training when it comes to getting the most out of our careers.
If you want to take the Degree in Design and Development of Video Games and Virtual Environments after completing the Cycle of 3D Animation, Games and Interactive Environments and you will be validated up to a total of 60 credits and can increase this figure up to 90 ECTS if you also take the HND.
The HND (Higher National Diploma) is an official qualification that belongs to the British university education system and is internationally recognized, whose equivalence is equal to 120 ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System).
The HND adds value to your resume, allows you to improve your university recognition and you can even do a third year in the United Kingdom and obtain a Bachelor in Arts, the British equivalent of an Official University Degree.
This training complement is taught in parallel to the two years of the corresponding Higher Level Training Cycle, with a teaching load of two more subjects per year. The rest of the subjects are validated with the subjects taken in the Higher Level Training Cycle.
HNDs are Level 5 qualifications under the UK Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF, www.accreditedqualifications.org.uk).
Access to the job market – Once you have your HND, you are ready to obtain a position in your chosen industry.
Since HNDs focus on knowledge and skills relevant to the world of work, many companies such as Shell, BAE Sytems, PWC and Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group consistently hire candidates with these qualifications.
In addition, more than 70 professional bodies and colleges in the UK recognize HNDs for membership. In an increasingly competitive global job market, an HND will help you stand out from the crowd.
Progression to university study – 95% of UK higher education institutions accept students with HND to complete a Degree. Nearly 300 universities worldwide – including many in The Times Top 100 international rankings – accept HND students on advanced courses.
