The EGD Collective is a grassroots movement across North America with a mission to help every student finish their education and find their place within gaming.
We are a one-of-a-kind leadership development experience that not only prevents students from dropping out or getting academically dismissed, but prepares and propels students into STEM and arts careers within the games industry.
“It really allowed me to continue my creative works... I'm pretty sure being a part of the Game Studio Program helped me get my internship at Kickstarter.”
