UNCG is hosting Esports & Gaming Summer Camp for 8-14 year-olds as well as a brand new camp for 13-17 year-olds! This summer, seven one-week camps are being offered on campus in the beautiful Esports arena, a state-of-the-art 3,300 square feet facility, along with computer lab spaces on campus. Camps will be divided by ages with an 8-11 year-old group and an 11-14 year-old group. Eleven-year-olds can choose either group based on comfort level. And for the week of July 29th, UNCG will be offering it’s first ever Unreal Engine Gaming Academy for the 13-17 year-old game designers of the future!

The arena includes a large number of gaming PCs, consoles, four large video walls, and eight large-screen video panels to facilitate shared experiences with areas for collaboration and academic instruction.

The summer camp content will include instruction from nationally-renowned gaming education company Black Rocket. Campers will have the opportunity to focus on two major subjects each week – one in the morning and one in the afternoon – and of course have plenty of time allotted for gameplay and friendly competitions.

Weekly sessions of various topics June 17- August 2, 2024
