The Herberger Institute recently launched\u00a0four new graduate programs<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0in extended reality, immersive experience design, futures and design, and narrative and emerging media to empower a more diverse next generation of creators in what we\u2019re calling the XRts fields.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Worlds for Change Challenge<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is a unique opportunity for current undergraduate students and recent graduates to participate in a worldbuilding contest and prototype their vision of a future. We are giving away two grand prize graduate scholarships worth $60,000 to attend one of the new programs, as well as a number of other cash and technology prizes.\u00a0This is an ideal opportunity for undergraduate students and recent alumni who may be interested in or benefit from a fully-funded graduate degree.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Challenge not only provides a platform for students to showcase your talents and visions but also serves as a gateway to exploring the skills you would develop through a graduate XRts degree.<\/p>\n
