[The Game Studio Experience] is remarkably useful. I think it¡¯s a great preparatory experience for working in the industry, not just because of the skills students learn, but also the mindset we teach. Having now worked with students a lot in studios on actual projects, I really see how well our students are set up for success. We teach teamwork, we teach failure resilience (even expectation!), we teach resourcefulness.
