From September 22 to 23, 2016, a working meeting of project participants was held at the Kherson National Technical University within the framework of the Erasmus+ KA2 program project – Capacity Building in Higher Education No. 561728-EPP-1-2015-1-ES-EPPKA2-CBHE-JP – "GameHub: University-Enterprises Cooperation in Game Industry in Ukraine".
The event was attended by representatives of a number of universities that are part of the project implementation Consortium, namely: the University of Deusto (Bilbao, Spain), the National Technical University "Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute", the Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University, the Donetsk National Technical University, the Odessa National Polytechnic University, the Kherson National Technical University, and the Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture.
During the meeting, the university rector, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Yu.M. Bardachov emphasized that participation in the "GameHub" project is important for the university. After all, the introduction of the latest information resources and the creation of a laboratory with modern equipment will help modernize technical education at the university, facilitate cooperation with European computer game developers, and allow them to be involved in the educational process, which in turn will strengthen the position of IT graduates in the labor market not only in Ukraine but also in the European space.
And conducting training sessions for university teachers and students within the project will significantly improve their level of competence in the field of computer game design and development.
Also, the results of the project implementation will become the basis for holding seminars and conferences on programming in the gaming industry, which will be held annually at the Kherson National Technical University.
In addition, the event program included presentations of the concepts for gaming laboratories that will be created at the Ukrainian partner universities for the project implementation, and a discussion of the strategy for further project execution, its dissemination, sustainability, and quality.
