University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies has officially launched the Unity Game Development Bootcamp. Students can begin the Bootcamp application process now.
Since August 2021, University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies has collaborated with Circuit Stream to offer beginner-friendly courses and workshops in virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) design and development.
This collaboration has helped University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies provide its students with opportunities to learn real-time 3D skills and gain the experience needed for various careers in the rapidly growing XR industry.
“We are very pleased to continue our successful collaboration with Circuit Stream to allow learners to expand their repertoire of skills as they grow their careers in the rapidly-expanding XR field,” says University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies Dean, Dr. Catherine Chandler-Crichlow. “I can’t wait to see them take the knowledge they gain with us and use it to bring new, exciting XR concepts to life.”
The demand for real-time 3D skills (RT3D) has grown 601% faster than the overall job market in recent years, with high growth projected to continue. Statista research on immersive technology growth is clear:
XR Headset revenue will hit $4.4B in 2023—doubling the figures from 2021.
Virtual reality revenue will reach $5.1B in 2023—almost double the $2.6B spent in 2018.
Total immersive technology revenue is expected to reach $12.3B in 2023—up from $9.2B in 2021.
As the market demand heats up, 60% of employers expect to become more reliant on people with advanced digital skills over the next five years. The Unity Developer Bootcamp will offer people the best way to learn the skills needed to enter the XR industry and succeed.
University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies is happy to expand its course offering by launching the inaugural Unity Game Development Bootcamp. The intensive 30-week online Bootcamp will prepare students for a successful career in game development and 3D development.
When asked about this new offering, Circuit Stream Co-Founder Mike Jarrell had this to say: “We’re thrilled that our University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies approved this new course and its curriculum! It shows they are committed to staying at the front of immersive technology and are providing their students with best-in-class XR education opportunities."
