Adding to all of that, EC has a strong Esports athletic program with a state-of-the-art gaming lounge, where you can get practical, first-hand experiences.
This program will teach you about how games are made, how to manage Esports teams, and how to plan the end-to-end of Esports events from logistics to marketing. You’ll learn through projects developed with companies like Capcom and Riot as you explore the history of games, how to develop plots, and how to create graphics. You’ll also have projects that let you design a virtual intercollegiate sports competition.
This minor will give you specific, practical skills that you can pair with broader programs like Business Administration, Media Studies, Communications, and Design, Art, or Psychology.
