Game Programming Faculty

University of Advancing Technology is currently recruiting an instructor to effectively instruct students in using a scripting language to study basics of game programming, graphics programming. Position requires knowledge of C++, data base, Direct X and Graphic Libraries. Knowledge of variables, data types, looping, conditional logic, functions, arrays, types, and other basic concepts allows the student to learn game concepts without a language course and prepares the student for future courses in this program during the first year.

Students will gain valuable programming experience by writing simple tutorial-based games.

• Recognize the fundamentals of computer programming such as variables, data types, branching and looping
• Demonstrate 2D computer graphics theory using bitmaps and animated sprites
• Identify device input commands including keyboard, mouse and joystick
• Apply game logistics of collision detection, object motion and finite state based programming
• Describe the fundamental theory of digital sound, file formats, effects commands and music playback commands
• Demonstrate 3D computer graphics theory using 3D object creation, manipulation and animation
