NMC Code 087

An Esports program is more than the players that compete. It also includes managing the program and events, maintaining security of the lab and computers, coaching teams, broadcasting games, and understanding the gaming culture and industry. Almost all collegiate programs require individuals with this knowledge in these areas to be successful.

The Esports Management certification program provides NMC students with experiential learning opportunities within the Esports varsity program that can be used for employment in the Esports industry or at an institution with an Esports program. For example, Ferris State University has launched a Bachelor of Science degree in Esports Production and through collaboration with the program director, students from NMC would have the opportunity to transfer into Ferris’s program with their academic coursework at NMC would be applicable to their degree at FSU.
