Tech Hub Learning outcomes – Tech Hub provides its students with a unique opportunity to learn in-demand skills, access technology, and learn directly from industry experts.

The program allows students to explore self-directed learning and receive outcomes that a traditional curriculum could never provide.

Rather than learning about a topic in isolation, they see how that topic fits into a final product’s broader context.

For example, rather than just learning to code, students learn about game design. This topic encompasses more than programming, including 3D art, narrative design, and music and sound design.

Students get an in-depth look at how their favorite video games are created and how each department contributes to its success.
