You know what makes my heart sink?

I get told all the time that what we do is not for girls.

Excuse me?

I get it’s not for everyone.

Silent studying
Creativity
Seeing things five different ways.

Our first cohort of Game Development students has finished their 8 week program, and as a final project they began working on an original game concept! In under 6 hours, our students accomplished this: a main menu, a demo environment, and an interactable location to progress the scene.

We'll have another Unity 1 course beginning on Monday, the 19th, for those of you who missed out on this one!
And if you've completed this course, you should have received an invitation to the next course, Continuing with Unity starting on Friday the 16th!

The students in our Entrepreneurship Lab collaborated to develop their own small business concept, called Forte Music!
Their product is a miniature CD case keychain with a programmed NFC chip - it opens the album in your preferred streaming service when your phone comes close to the keychain.
Students created this ad to showcase their finished product, logo, and stretch their social media muscles.
