Level up at Herkimer College
Esports is predicted to grow faster than any other sport in the next few years, and the need for managers to support game developers and the emerging audience of gaming consumers is projected to increase as well. This growth industry is creating demand for employees who appreciate the professional competitive video gaming environment, understand basic technology, and possess marketing and management skills.
Herkimer College's degree program will prepare students in areas of esports management, event planning and management, sports governance, as well as provide them with a critical foundation in business and general education coursework.
