Who Should Attend

  • Professionals who want an introduction to Unity for potential industry applications
  • Engineers who want to leverage Unity's powerful tools for creating interactive prototypes, simulating real-world scenarios, and testing product functionality before physical development
  • Project designers interested in using Unity to create immersive experiences and interactive elements for presentations, user testing, and enhancing project visualisation
  • Marketers curious how to utilise Unity's capabilities to develop engaging 3D marketing campaigns, interactive product showcases, and captivating promotional videos to stand out in a competitive landscape
  • Professionals interested in learning C# (prior basic knowledge of programming recommended).

Overview

Our world is three-dimensional and dynamic, so the design process should be too!

This programme taps on the potential of Unity, not just as a game engine, but also as a powerful tool for product design and development. With its various pillars, ranging from Prototyping and Product Design to Augmented and Virtual Reality, Unity provides support through its capabilities for real-time rendering. This accelerates any 3D design process by allowing for easier collaboration, faster iterations speeds, and visualisations on multiple platforms.

This certificate programme dives into using Unity for product development by giving participants the opportunity to complete a series of hands-on projects, spanning from data visualisations to Extended Reality integrations. Upon completion of the programme, participants will learn how to maximise the potential of Unity as a tool throughout the entire design process - from planning to deployment.
