Build a career in Esports

GAMING has evolved so much, and if
you’re truly passionate about it, you can

get study and build a career on Esports.
When I say “a career on Esports”, I
don’t just mean being a player and
gaming all day but everyone evolved

in it in general. For example, you can
get a career in gaming management,
operations, marketing, event planning,
coaching etc.

Esports is quickly becoming a billion
dollar industry, so there will be more
job availability globally (I don’t know

about Aruba though, Kappa). And you
won’t be stuck with just gaming/eSport
job opportunities, because our society
is dominated by digital trends.

Here are some of the best US based
colleges that offer an Esports program
and some offer scholarships. University

of Utah, University of California -
Berkeley, University of California –
Irvine, Boise State University, Miami
University and there are plenty more.

Society is evolving, and the world is
evolving, don’t be basic. Explore your
options and study something you’re

truly interested in, who knows, maybe
in the future you can bring Aruba into
the gaming world/industry.
