Immersive technology is blowing up everywhere, and that includes Higher Education. As VR/AR transform the way we work, learn, shop, and even construct military strategies, Universities are fielding increased demand from employers and aspiring students to produce graduates with the skillsets to thrive in this nascent industry.
According to projections set out by the European Commission, market demands for qualified Technology specialists will see a shortfall of up to 750,000 professionals in 2025. With VR/AR being one sector with the highest market demand.
The result of this is a growing number of AR/VR courses being offered at the pre-university, undergraduate, and postgraduate level in the UK. From software development to digital art to imaging in engineering, this emerging technology is popping up in a wide range of disciplines.
