Digital Humanities event connects students with industry leaders

On Friday, Nov. 17, Brock’s Department of Digital Humanities hosted their annual Industry Night bringing together Brock students and leading game industry representatives for an exciting evening of connection, discussion and networking.

Held in Brock’s Rankin Family Pavilion, Digital Humanities hosted over 20 industry representatives, mostly from a number of prestigious game studios, many of which are located in the Niagara regions.

During the event, faculty, instructors, graduate and undergraduate students from the GAME and Interactive Arts and Science programs had the opportunity to speak one-on-one with industry experts and gain valuable perspective about the gaming industry and its future.

With many in attendance, this unique experiential education event fostered a sense of scholarly and professional community united by a shared passion for gaming.

This event was generously sponsored by Innovate Niagara. Staffing and space support was provided by  Co-op, Career and Experiential Education and BrockLINC.
