This article will discuss the growing importance of RT3D skills in the job market, the advantages of post-secondary institutions that are able to teach students these sought-after skills, Unity Academic Alliance solutions to help them get started, and information on our upcoming webinar with Unity that will discuss all of this in further detail.

Let’s start with RT3D.

What is Real-Time 3D Development?

Let’s take a look at what RT3D does. Real-time 3D software allows users to create fully interactive, environments, 3D models, and virtual worlds that can be rendered very quickly. Real-time 3D experiences are both interactive and immersive. This allows companies to navigate many business challenges better than ever before. In fact, it is more commonly being used in a variety of disciplines including manufacturing, engineering, design, marketing, sales, and operations.

Implications of RT3D for Higher Education

As you can imagine with the significant adoption in various industries, roles that require RT3D skills are growing faster than the job market overall. Job growth in 2019 was 600% greater in the areas of augmented reality, virtual reality, and gaming engineering. There is no doubt – candidates with real-time 3D development skills are in high demand.

Higher education institutions are facing challenges. Creating or improving niche RT3D is a point of differentiation that provides a competitive edge for institutions that can help drive enrollment. Students want to develop invaluable skills that can prepare them for a high-growth rewarding career. Careers in gaming, engineering, AR, VR, manufacturing, and other exciting fields.

Unity Academic Alliance (UAA) provides the products, resources, and support post-secondary institutions need to offer innovative programs in this space. We’ll go into further detail in our upcoming webinar, but Unity Academic Alliance is designed to help higher education institutions start a real-time 3D development program quickly or expand current programs. UAA offers development training to empower your faculty to learn and teach these important future-proof skills, preparation to become Unity certified, and much more.
