International master’s degree in video games and interactive media (taught in English)

The master’s degree in video games and interactive media (international program) will open in September 2026. 

The International Master of Video Games and Interactive Media has been designed for undergraduate students willing to specialize in video game design and development – from indie projects to AAA blockbusters – and study in an intercultural environment while benefiting from the French Know How. All courses are Face-to-Face and taught in English by renowned academics and industry professionals.

Students enroll in one of the six proposed specializations:  

Game Art

Game Design

Game Programming

Project Management

Sound Design

UX/UI Design

Important note: in September 2026, only Game design, Game programming and Game art will be available. 

Project-based learning   

Students are trained in a collaborative environment, learning to work together and coordinate even if they come from different backgrounds.  

Several projects are carried out throughout the 2 years: 3 projects of increasing scope (nano-project, first-year mini-project and second-year project), workshops (“included and connected” workshop, “art and game” workshop with art students from ÉESI, etc.) and course projects (at least one project per teaching unit).  

These projects are specifically designed to foster, nurture and grow their creativity.  

Aïda DEL SOLAR, artistic director of the master's program, and Antonin FOURNEAU, multimedia artist, are part of the teaching team, helping to instill a spirit of creativity and technique.  

Advantages

Teaching team  

Half of the teaching staff are researchers and the other half are professionals.  

This enables students to have both a field-focused vision from the professionals and a broader perspective from the teacher-researchers.  

For each specialization, there is an academic manager and a professional manager, who together coordinate all course content.  

PhD  

If students so wish, they can pursue a doctorate: Cnam-Enjmin can welcome them for a doctorate directly after the Master's degree.
