Staffordshire University: They offer a BA (Hons) in Esports, where you can learn about hosting tournaments, events, and productions.
College of Esports: Located in London, this institution offers degrees focused on the business side of esports.
University of Chichester: They provide a BA (Hons) in Esports, covering various aspects of the industry, including event management and production.
Hi there, I'm an Esports student at the University of Staffordshire (FKA as Staffordshire University) and I would say the course at Staffs is definitely worthwhile. It's focussed on a traditional academic kind of working with opportunities to use new equipment and even the really cool arena they've just built.
The course is specifically Esports compared to other universities who specialise in different topics, so you can tailor your studies towards your own passions, for example I specialise in hosting and casting outside of University so I use my experience in these to enhance my academics.

In short, when people usually ask I say it's business, media and events for the Esports industry 😎
I've been loving my time on the course so far so I can only recommend it myself :smile:

If you have anymore questions I can answer them !
Thank you,
