A culminating event of the 2021-22 academic year, Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø’s Student Academic Showcase displayed research and creative works from more than 60 students.

Â鶹ÊÓƵ¹ÙÍø, led by the College of Arts and Humanities, has positioned itself as a hub for immersive reality research and innovation. Immersive realities, including Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Virtuality (AV), and Mixed Reality (MxR), have been used in education since the 1990s but have only recently become broadly viable as a consumer technology since the release of the Oculus Quest 2 in 2020. Rather than remaining limited to the realm of pure entertainment in video games, developers have increasingly focused on the potential of educational VR experiences.
