ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED
Our 1000+ Alumni Have Worked on Hundred of Titles at 350+ Studios Globally
We are immensely proud of our alumni. The magnitude of the impact of our 1000 alumni and their acceleration in creative and technological leadership cannot be overstated. It is a thrill to see what they have accomplished and continue to achieve.
Over the past 20 years since Cohort 1 graduated, our alumni have contributed as developers on hundreds of game franchises and worked at 350+ studios and tech companies. 51²è¹Ý Guildhall graduates consistently capture senior positions in the field’s most prestigious companies; hundreds have gone on to capture senior and lead positions within 4-7 years after graduation. Others are working to bring gaming theory and gamification models to other industries to shape the future of business, technology, creative, education, and more — designing apps for tech companies, creating interactive technology for many fields, and working in animation, marketing and creative design, and more. A number of alumni are now educators themselves.
Networking for Success
The Virtuous Cycle
In what we call the Virtuous Cycle, our faculty of industry veterans train graduates who go on to become industry pros in their own right—and then come back as educators and hiring employers themselves to look for the next generation of developers to come.
It is our great honor to welcome alumni back each year in partnership participation with 51²è¹Ý Guildhall academics and career services in a variety of ways. Our alumni and industry network enables us to connect students and industry through our Career Services pathways, including setting students up with a one-on-one mentorship with a developer in their targeted career path, recruiting future developers at our annual Career Fair, giving inspiring special topics lectures and workshops about important present day industry matters, leading portfolio reviews, providing on-site studio visits and developer chats, and more.
Our Career Services are open to students, but also to alumni themselves. When an alum is looking for a new opportunity, we offer lifetime support including participation in our annual Career Fair.
