Student Shapers
One way to build new ViRSE worlds is through Student Shapers. The deadline for Student Shapers project proposals this year is February 2nd. Get in touch and we can help with your application.
Learn to Build with ViRSE
We've partnered with the Graduate School at Imperial College London to create a training course teaching you everything you need to know to develop richly interactive, fully multiplayer VR applications.
Graduate students have priority, but should there be available seats on the course, anyone from the wider college community (students outside the Graduate School, as well as staff) are more than welcome to join.
