[game_edu] Share Our Opportunity: The IGDA Scholars Program at GDC 2017

[Molly Proffitt]

Calling all Edu SIG Members!

*Less than one month remains to apply for the IGDA Scholars Program at GDC
2017. *

The IGDA Foundation is accepting applications for the IGDA Scholars program
at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) in 2017 until 6 December 2016. The
program is open to all students and recent graduates in fields related to
game development.


*Visit http://scholars.igdafoundation.org/
<http://scholars.igdafoundation.org/> to apply.*
GDC will take place 27 February to 3 March 2017 at the Moscone Center in
San Francisco, USA. The world's largest and longest-running
professionals-only game industry event features over 400 lectures, panels,
tutorials and round-table discussions on a comprehensive selection of game
development topics taught by leading industry experts. Awarded to the best
and brightest students in game development disciplines, the IGDA Scholars
Program gives recipients an unforgettable experience including an
all-access pass, industry mentorship, travel stipend, and local studio
tours.

IGDA Scholars in the past have had incredible opportunities above and
beyond the awarded event passes, including private Q&As with industry
luminaries such as Ed Fries, Don Daglow, Reiko Ninomiya, Tim O'Leary, and
more. They've also toured game studios such as Zynga and Double Fine.
Students create connections with their mentors and fellow Scholars that
last well after the conferences.

You can learn more about the program, its history, and find out how to
apply at http://scholars.igdafoundation.org/. Please help us spread the
word about this excellent opportunity for students from around the world by
