Today’s episode is all about esports degrees and esports programmes! We were very lucky to have 2 very special guests on the show - Dr Seth Jenny who has a wealth of knowledge in the area and researches esports degrees, and Edge’s very own Zahi who has done a masters degree in esports so it was great to get both perspectives.
We cover the programmes currently on offer, the problems with some of the degrees, Zahi’s experience and what he found useful and what he didn’t find so great, what we’d recommend people to look for when you’re choosing which degree is right for you, whether you actually need a degree in esports to work in the industry, the stigmas and misconceptions surrounding these programmes, and what’s in store for esports in education in the future.
It’s a bit of a longer episode than usual because we had such an in-depth discussion and it was just great to get that level of insight. We hope you find this episode interesting and super useful. And if you want to ask any questions or discuss this further be sure to get in touch with any of us on social media.
