  • Engage with organisations effectively to develop project plans
  • Develop graduates with a fundamental understanding of project management

VIRTUAL REALITY WITH INDUSTRY EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES

It is hard to think of an area of human activity or interest which would not benefit from VR in some way. Numerous industries have already adopted VR practices and as a result are all future employers in this industry. At present, there is a real shortage of VR specialists, especially individuals with additional subject expertise e.g., engineering, science, business, and arts and humanities. This is hampering industry growth. Our aim is to satisfy this shortage by producing experts who are already qualified to degree level in one discipline but who also possess the highly desirable skill of creating their own original VR applications.
