Changing university courses.
 

I was wondeirng if anyone has done this.

Im currently in third year of Game production, meaning i only have one year to go. I always planned staying on so i could do a Sound production course, but i've found out this isnt possible due to credits and all that.

The two choices i have now, is do i transfer or stay. I know people transfer course usually in first year, so it is a bit strange as i've nearly completed this course. But there has always been alot of problems with my course as it is rather new, its not skillset approved (this means the games courses have been approved, and games companys look for this) and even being in third year there has been so many problems, the last straw for me was being shoved into a four hour week when i am ment to be a full time student. Im fully aware if i finish my current course the chances of getting a job are low.

Ive done some audio modules for my course and i really enjoyed doing them, and it was something i got high grades for as well. I kinds figured out i wanted to do audio production for games rather than the overall management of the game. But im still so confused as what to do.

If i do transfer then i go back into third year, and do 5 years at uni instead of 4. I just dont want to feel like ive wasted the last 3 years doing something that im not going to do anymore.

im so confused.

Could you finish off your degree and then do a years course to get it accredited? Or could you do audio modules and have it like a double major degree? I don't know if that's possible I just know one of my friends is doing a double major degree with psychology and economics but she's done that the whole way through doing modules of each.

There isnt anything after my course to do, i mean there isnt a phd or masters i can do as it doesnt exist for my course.

If i want to do the audio modules with my current course i can do that, but they remin ungraded and just optional modules, which i doubt i can do as 4th year is the worst.

The only thing i can do is transfer or not

Have you tried talking to your tutor or an academic affairs officer? They could give you all your options.
