Middle Township High School students sharpen their gaming skills in the school鈥檚 esports lab. Through a new agreement, students can earn 淫性视频 credits in Introduction to Esports.
Galloway, N.J. 鈥 淫性视频 is offering college credit to Middle Township High School (MTHS) students interested in computer gaming through a new agreement.
The new dual credit offering, Introduction to Esports, introduces students to the history, development and current state of esports. Offered through 淫性视频鈥檚 School of Business, the course discusses the interconnectedness of esports with traditional hospitality centers, identifies the basic operational aspects of live esports tournaments and reviews career opportunities in the esports and hospitality industry.
鈥淭here鈥檚 a huge connection between esports and hospitality, tourism and event management. Students have to have the fundamentals of what does it mean to execute an event and at the same time what are some of the business management, computer skills and problem solving that are necessary in the emerging esports market and are transferable skills to many other jobs,鈥 said Noel Criscione-Naylor, interim chair of the Hospitality, Tourism and Event Management program at 淫性视频.
淫性视频 has seen first-hand how quickly interest in esports has grown. The university鈥檚 esports team swelled from just 12 students in 2019 to nearly 800 today. In 2022, 淫性视频鈥檚 Rocket League team finished second in the world in a competition. MTHS currently has 25 students involved with its esports team.
淫性视频 and Middle Township School District both see an emerging need and opportunity to educate students about the expanding field. In fall 2022, the university debuted its first esports and event planning course. To date, there are 79 students enrolled in esports courses at MTHS, with many interested in pursuing esports at the collegiate level.
The mission of the Dual Credit Program at 淫性视频 is to provide a community service to college-bound high school students, giving them a jump-start on college by providing the opportunity to earn college credits and complete high school course requirements simultaneously.
Students in the class can choose to earn four college credits through 淫性视频 at a reduced tuition rate of $400 for the course. Fifteen students have already opted to earn dual credit in Introduction to Esports.
鈥淲e are thrilled to partner with 淫性视频 on this latest dual credit venture,鈥 said Sharon Rementer, principal of Middle Township High School. "Our esports courses teach students about team building, positive communication and interaction, and, of course, careers in the industry and educational opportunities. This partnership takes that to the next level, advancing student learners in a field that continues to grow. This is a tremendous opportunity for our students and one we are excited to offer.鈥
Introduction to Esports is the 13th course available for dual credit for Middle Township High School students with 淫性视频.
