The MCCC is hosting an open house for National Video Games Day as part of an effort to promote different degree programs that students may not know are available.

The open day will take place on September 12 at 6 p.m. from the cafeteria of the S building.

The event is open and free to the public and students, just register here.

Attendees will have the opportunity to learn first-hand from the professors what to expect if they choose to delve into the world of video game design, development, and programming.

Attendees will have the opportunity to tour the labs and network with the professors they would learn from.

“We have some of the games that previous students have developed and are running,” said Leon Letter, dean of the business division, “so people can see some of the examples of work that students have done.”

The hope is to help show participants the kinds of things they can learn in the programs.

Part of the open house will also talk about transfer pathways for those who complete programs at MCCC and wish to continue to develop their design skills and further their education.

Letter said he was excited about the event and bringing attention to game design and development programs.

Any additional questions about the event can be directed to Leon Letter, Dean of the Business Division, at (734) 384-4282 or lletter@monroeccc.edu.
