Credit(s): 1-3

GAME INTERNSHIP
Component: Internship
The Game Studies and Esports Internship provides a hands-on educational experience. The internship is based on practical experience working directly in the games and esports industry, combined with traditional academic components. Student activities include the application of important theories/concepts gleaned from prior coursework, informing periodic reflection assignments. Towards the end of spring semester or summer session, students will deliver a formal oral presentation to their fellow Game Studies and esports students, faculty members, and professionals in the field. These presentations will be open to the university community and general public. Lastly, evaluation surveys will be completed by both the student intern and the on-site supervisor. These evaluations will help the course instructor measure the overall quality of the internship learning experience and the quality of the student’s performance.
