Virtual Reality

General Overview

Virtual Reality (VR) pushes the limits of sensory and technological experience. Students not only explore immersive worlds using standalone headsets, but also learn the basics of 3D modeling by creating their own interactive virtual spaces. It is a unique immersion at the convergence of graphic creation, spatial geometry, and environment programming.
