McMaster Game Development Association: Executive Applications
Our association consists of three main parts:
1. Create a skilled team with various skill sets in creating game projects (Android, iOS, and PC games)
2. Expand & Teach new skills to the McMaster Population, by setting up seminars, with various professors, researchers & Industry professionals.
3. Become an information hub for highschool & university students in Hamilton wanting a local association to go to for advice & information in game development & possibly assistance in starting a similar club in their highschool.
Why is this important?
Fostering and gaining new skills as a student is something of great importance when competing for a career and when creating a portfolio to showcase to employers. For Highschool students, we want to become a source of advice and assistance they can go to for resources in getting into the game industry or clear any misconceptions students may have about what a job in the game industry involves.
This does sound ambitious, however we have gotten some support from various departments on campus, a room, high-end computers (do note, there not finalized yet, but in the process of finalizing these generous donations).
