Welcome to the Game Design and Appreciation Club. We are an IGDA recognized student chapter at Cal Poly Pomona dedicated to the study of game design and game programming.

All majors are welcome to join, and we believe that everyone has a voice in this new field that employs academic disciplines ranging from the liberal arts to engineering and science. Membership is free! And we will continue to make this a universal tenet of the club for as long as we can sustain it.

Weekly meetings will be held throughout the year, with presentations being given by students and faculty. We are also trying to introduce the possibility of getting members of the industry to come in and talk. All talks and presentations will be related to aspects on game development; ranging from game engine design and tool sets/programming, game and company profiles, case studies of genres, artistic merits/design and anything else that pertains to the development process

Currently the president of GDAC is Koray Hagen and our adviser is Dr. Craig Rich of the Computer Science Department.

Please contact us through our email at cppgamedesign@gmail.com or post on our forums for any questions or suggestions. We hope to see you at our weekly meetings!

Our current officer team is:
