The use of extended reality (XR) technology is exploding, from video games that take
place in virtual worlds — and others that incorporate the real world — to medical
diagnosis and product design applications that utilize a virtual environment.
The Bachelor of Science in extended reality degree at Trine University equips you to succeed in this leading-edge field.
The degree: The future of technology
Encompassing augmented, virtual and mixed reality, XR is defined as interaction between
humans and computer-generated graphics, either in reality or in a virtual environment.
The Bachelor of Science in extended reality degree at Trine University will prepare you to develop XR apps and apply XR technology across
multiple disciplines.
The experience: Developing and applying XR
You will develop XR applications using Unity, the world’s leading platform for creating
and operating real-time 3D content. The training you receive in your Trine coursework
will prepare you to earn Unity certification, demonstrating your technical skills
and applied knowledge to potential employers.
You also will learn to analyze the advantages of AR and VR technologies and apply
them to real-world problems.
The result: XR that’s ready for prime time
As a graduate of the Bachelor of Science in extended reality program, you will be able to develop immersive VR experiences using industry-standard
platforms. You will write efficient, optimized code and use quality assurance testing
methodology and management to create market-ready XR applications. You will be able
to develop XR solutions to problems in a variety of industries.
