This hands-on stu­dio course will focus on the cre­ation of in­no­v­a­tive work­able pro­to­types ex­plor­ing ex­pres­sive forms of game­play using a va­ri­ety of multi-me­dia ap­proaches, method­olo­gies and ma­te­ri­als. The aes­thet­ics of game de­sign, in­clud­ing asset and char­ac­ter de­vel­op­ment, level de­sign, game play ex­pe­ri­ence and de­liv­ery sys­tems will be cov­ered. Sup­ple­men­tal read­ings on the com­plex in­ter­play be­tween story and game will be ex­plored to an­a­lyze ef­fec­tive nar­ra­tive de­vices and game me­chan­ics. The class will in­volve lec­tures on game the­ory, de­sign ex­er­cises and in-depth analy­sis of works across com­mer­cial, art & so­cial change sec­tors.

This hands-on studio course will focus on the creation of innovative workable prototypes exploring expressive forms of gameplay using a variety of multi-media approaches, methodologies and materials. The aesthetics of game design, including asset and character development, level design, game play experience and delivery systems will be covered. Supplemental readings on the complex interplay between story and game will be explored to analyze effective narrative devices and game mechanics. The class will involve lectures on game theory, design exercises and in-depth analysis of works across commercial, art & social change sectors.

A pro­ject-based in­tro­duc­tion to com­pu­ta­tional think­ing and prob­lem solv­ing. Cov­ers a wide range of top­ics, in­clud­ing data vi­su­al­iza­tion, sta­tis­ti­cal tech­niques, sim­u­la­tions of dy­nam­i­cal sys­tems, com­pu­ta­tional tech­niques to un­der­stand data, using re­gres­sion to fit mod­els to data, as well as an in­tro­duc­tion to some more ad­vanced top­ics: Monte Carlo sim­u­la­tions, op­ti­miza­tion, dy­namic pro­gram­ming, image pro­cess­ing, nat­ural lan­guage pro­cess­ing, geospa­tial data analy­sis and cur­rent data sci­ence.

A project-based introduction to computational thinking and problem solving. Covers a wide range of topics, including data visualization, statistical techniques, simulations of dynamical systems, computational techniques to understand data, using regression to fit models to data, as well as an introduction to some more advanced topics: Monte Carlo simulations, optimization, dynamic programming, image processing, natural language processing, geospatial data analysis and current data science.

The study of dif­fer­ent types of op­ti­miza­tion prob­lems aris­ing in dif­fer­ent fields of busi­ness and in­dus­try. Ex­am­ples are pro­vided on sen­si­tiv­ity analy­sis of pa­ra­me­ters of a model and cal­cu­lat­ing shadow prices. Course Avatar and Header Image cre­ated at lo­go­makr.com

The study of different types of optimization problems arising in different fields of business and industry. Examples are provided on sensitivity analysis of parameters of a model and calculating shadow prices. Course Avatar and Header Image created at logomakr.com
