Well, I haven't taken it yet, since I'm going into second year this year, but I have done a lot of research. Basically, second years is pretty general among all the streams of software engineering. I think I have two different classes about media from everyone else, and that's it.
In third year, the streams start to differentiate a lot more (well, embedded systems becomes a lot different than game design, and general lies somewhere in the middle). I think this is where one in game design would start to really learn how to make games :p
In fourth year, I think one of the final project things is to make a game in a group. I'm not so sure though. I talked to Dr. Khedri about this before, and he said that no matter which stream of software engineering you go into, you still come out as a software engineer.
So to answer your question more simply, yes, but not till later on :p
