This year, we are incredibly pleased to have the University of Kentucky Esports Program serve as a sponsor for Vector Online! The UK Esports program is a new initiative at UK and as a part of their sponsorship we are going to have a talk on Friday at 12:30 about this new program and about bringing esports to the Bluegrass!
Some more information about UK Esports:
Starting later this year, the University and Gen.G will serve as host for a periodic speaker series on campus, featuring leading gaming and esports executives, athletes and content creators. The series, which also will be streamed globally, will showcase content that is customized for students and alumni from relevant university majors and degree programs.
The university is considering the academic potential that esports and gaming lends to our educational mission and the future careers for our students. Any upcoming plans and programming will be posted on this site so check back for more information.
