Syracuse University’s College of Professional Studies has partnered with Circuit Stream, an industry leader in Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and Extended Reality (XR) education, to offer a Unity Game Development Bootcamp.
Global demand for Unity developers is growing fast in the technology and video game industry. Real-time 3D (RT3D) is one of the most in-demand tech skills and has one of the highest forecasted growth rates — over 70% in the next 10 years [Burning Glass].
The 30-week Unity Game Development Bootcamp is a career-focused program that prepares learners to enter the 3D development industry. Throughout the bootcamp, students will learn object-oriented and data-driven programming to build applications that communicate with online APIs, servers and databases. Students will finish the bootcamp with nine portfolio-worthy projects.
Other learning outcomes from the bootcamp include:
- Foundational skills to use Unity and create exciting real-time 3D experiences.
- Learn the basics of C#, a programming language commonly used to create games.
- Understand the process of crafting an application from start to finish, including industry-standard and Agile practices.
- Learn to leverage third-party tools like Python, SQL and databases to include multiplayer and data analytics into your game development process.
- Learn the benefits of cross-platform game development, which allows you to code once and release your game on a range of platforms including, mobile, console, AR/VR and PC.
The bootcamp is a beginner-friendly program, but basic computer literacy skills, including file management and navigating your operating system, are necessary for a successful learning process.
