COMPANIES THAT HAVE HIRED OUR GRADUATES
Blizzard Entertainment partners with the game design school at Academy of Art University to provide lectures and student portfolio reviews. Many of our students have entered and won the annual Blizzard Student Art Contest, earning mentoring, internships and employment with Blizzard.
Like Blizzard, Riot Games has been a longtime partner to the Academy, advising our faculty on specialized classes that directly address the needs of the Riot Games production pipeline.
