University Campus of Esports (formerly College of Esports)

About us

The University Campus of Esports (UCES) is a specialist Higher Education institution focused on the global business of esports and games. We provide extensive learning, teaching, research, and career development opportunities through a range of esports-focused degrees.

Our programmes are built around three core pathways, allowing students to apply traditional academic disciplines to their passions:

Business and Operations of international organisations
Coaching and Management of teams and players
Games Creation and Development across media and genres

Every course focuses on the holistic development of students, with a focus on transferable skills. A key aspect of study at UCES involves exposure to culturally diverse, inclusive, and industry-connected experiences that are designed to prepare students for long, successful careers in the esports and other global industries.
