When students complain that their school didn't prepare them and designers report they give no special weight to job applicants with a design degree, something has gone wrong. A rigorous liberal arts education combined with ongoing project courses may give students the social and intellectual skills that systems and design courses alone cannot. (---More below)

Game design degrees are still relatively new, so the question of how to teach them is still being explored. Recently, students who have gone through these programs have had trouble finding jobs, and when they do find jobs, they often find themselves unprepared for the real work of being a designer. On the other side of the equation, designers in charge of hiring have not been impressed with applicants who have degrees. Ultimately, the current education system for game design focuses too much on game skills at the expense of the more broad intellectual capabilities that designers really need. The industry moves so fast that the version of an engine students learn in their freshman year would be obsolete by the time they graduate, and even disciplines like game balance are also tools that the designer is expected to pick up on the job rather than fundamental skills to succeed at it. The ideal skillset, according to many designers, encompasses a broad range of social (communication, collaboration) and intellectual (love of learning, lateral thinking, breadth of knowledge) abilities, plus the ability to harness them (project scope and logical thinking). None of these are game specific skills. Instead, game designers should be put through a rigorous liberal arts program that exposes them to a wide array of disciplines in a challenging, discussion-focused curriculum (with extra emphasis on math). This set of classes should be underlined by ongoing project courses in which students must both work in teams and incorporate elements of other classwork to create games at least once a month. Not only does that help produce more adaptable designers, who can work in teams and bring a wide array of experiences to bear on problem solving, but it also gets them practical experience in building games and a long history of projects to craft their eventual portfolio.

What is a game designer? It's one of the toughest questions to answer. Basically, there are two parts to being a game designer.
The first part is communicating, coming up with, and expressing the idea of the game. What the game is, why it is, who it appeals to.
The other part of being a game designer and the different roles in game design are assembling the game from pieces that have been made by the rest of the team.
Game designers generally report to producers or development directors. It depends on the company and what titles they give.
There are various levels of game designers. Ultimately, they will report to a lead designer and the lead designer generally report to a producer or development director.

Game design
Game design is the art of applying design and aesthetics to create a game to facilitate interaction between players for entertainment or for medical, educational, or experimental purposes. Game design can be applied both to games and, increasingly, to other interactions, particularly virtual ones (see gamification).
Game design creates goals, rules, and challenges to define a sport, tabletop game, casino game, video game, role-playing game, or simulation that produces desirable interactions among its participants and, possibly, spectators.
Academically, game design is part of game studies, while game theory studies strategic decision making (primarily in non-game situations). Games have historically inspired seminal research in the fields of probability, artificial intelligence, economics, and optimization theory. Applying game design to itself is a current research topic in metadesign.
History
Sports (see history of sports), gambling, and board games are known, respectively, to have existed for at least ten thousand, six thousand, and five thousand years.

When students complain that their school didn't prepare them and designers report they give no special weight to job applicants with a design degree, something has gone wrong. A rigorous liberal arts education combined with ongoing project courses may give students the social and intellectual skills that systems and design courses alone cannot. (---More below)

Game design degrees are still relatively new, so the question of how to teach them is still being explored. Recently, students who have gone through these programs have had trouble finding jobs, and when they do find jobs, they often find themselves unprepared for the real work of being a designer. On the other side of the equation, designers in charge of hiring have not been impressed with applicants who have degrees. Ultimately, the current education system for game design focuses too much on game skills at the expense of the more broad intellectual capabilities that designers really need. The industry moves so fast that the version of an engine students learn in their freshman year would be obsolete by the time they graduate, and even disciplines like game balance are also tools that the designer is expected to pick up on the job rather than fundamental skills to succeed at it. The ideal skillset, according to many designers, encompasses a broad range of social (communication, collaboration) and intellectual (love of learning, lateral thinking, breadth of knowledge) abilities, plus the ability to harness them (project scope and logical thinking). None of these are game specific skills. Instead, game designers should be put through a rigorous liberal arts program that exposes them to a wide array of disciplines in a challenging, discussion-focused curriculum (with extra emphasis on math). This set of classes should be underlined by ongoing project courses in which students must both work in teams and incorporate elements of other classwork to create games at least once a month. Not only does that help produce more adaptable designers, who can work in teams and bring a wide array of experiences to bear on problem solving, but it also gets them practical experience in building games and a long history of projects to craft their eventual portfolio.

Designing Game Rules - PAX South 2016
The rules of a game literally define it. In videogames, they are intrinsic limitations. In tabletop, players must enforce them. In all games, players need to learn them. There are good and bad ways to teach a game. From awful tutorials to unparseable rulebooks, elegant demos to hour-long slogs, join us for a mechanical discussion of how game rules are (and should be) written, how players learn games, and why so few people are willing to read a 100 page rulebook (nevermind the appendices)!
