A fascinating University of Limerick Alumni Spotlight this week with Cian Woods, Lead Hardware-in-loop (HIL) Test Engineer at Jaguar Land Rover in Shannon, Co Clare. Cian graduated from CSIS Computer Games Development in 2016. Great to hear about him talk about his work and experiences!

“I have always been into computers and playing video games, this course was the best of both worlds for gaining a deep understanding of how computers worked and how to write applications for computers across multiple different programming languages, as well as learning how video games are developed from both a graphical and logical point of view.”

In the latest instalment of our Alumni Spotlight, we speak to Cian Woods, graduate of Computer Games Development from UL’s Department of Computer Science and Information Systems. Cian now works at Jaguar Land Rover in Shannon, County Clare.
