In order to stimulate students that wish to take part in the games industry, Maxis is sending the developer of their Spore franchise to colleges around the US.
The Maxis’ “College Invasion Tour” hit Georgia Institute of Technology on April 10th, and will head to University of Southern California on April 16th and Carnegie Mellon University on May 1st.
“Maxis and EA are huge proponents of college game design programs and nurturing rising talent,” said Lucy Bradshaw, VP and General Manager at Maxis. “The robust creative capabilities of the Adventure Creator in Spore Galactic Adventures, empowers future game developers with a different way to experiment with game design. I can’t wait to see what the students create.”
“The games industry continues to grow with the rise of online gaming, casual gaming and the exciting challenges of new markets,” said Cindy Nicola, VP, Global Talent Acquisition. “EA is passionate about attracting and hiring the brightest graduates as they are our next generation of leaders. Our university partnerships and the talent they produce are key components of our overall talent strategy and we are deeply committed to continuing to hire interns and new graduates across EA.”
Stimulating students is important for the companies. Last year, EA gave room to 250 interns and hired 80 graduates.
