Epic Games, the creators of Fortnite, are hosting an early talent competition using Unreal Engine to imagine the future of mobility. Students will explore ideas ranging from smarter vehicles and immersive customer experiences to accessible transportation and entirely new ways of moving through the world.
The competition kicks off live on September 18, and students will have until September 22 to develop and submit their ideas. No prior Unreal Engine experience is required, and the opportunity is open to students across disciplines, including engineering, computer science, business, design, marketing, and more. The winners will be announced October 2.
