ESports Lab Facilities
Any student may use the lab during free drop-in lab events, and is reservable for events for a fee. The lab is also open to varsity team members with Mcard swipe access, and esports club members at designated times. With a dedicated 10Gb fiber connection to the lab we aim to provide the lowest pings possible for gaming competitions.
With our corporate sponsors we are building pathways to internships in a broad range of studies that will give students real world experience. These internships will include cybersecurity, marketing and business management just to name a few.
With students involved from all areas the Esports program has been able to connect students in cross study applications. Merging game designers with dance and theater, CIT students with physical therapy students. Cross learning and bringing what is taught in the classroom to practical use.
