In 2006, more than 80 percent of software publishing workers held a college degree. Some had a bachelor's degree in computer science, mathematics, or information systems; others earned a degree in accounting or business, supplemented with career training in development and programming. An associate degree, supported by great experience and skills, may land you an entry-level video game development position.
