Mass media: Russian universities will start teaching esports classes
By the end of 2024, esports courses may appear in Russian universities. This is reported by the Vedomosti newspaper with reference to the roadmap “New System-wide Software” (NOPO) approved on December 16.
According to the newspaper, esports classes are planned to be included in the programs of both technical and humanitarian specialties in a number of “interested” universities.
Three organizations are responsible for the implementation of the project: Rostelecom, SPbSUT and ANO Digital Economy. They should study the experience of foreign universities, form a working group of experts and representatives of the university community, and also choose the first educational programs in which esports courses will be introduced.
