About Bsc (hons) Esports Production in Nottingham Trent University
Esports isn’t just about gaming. It’s a global industry worth $1.1billion, and it’s growing at a rapid rate.
It’s now the fourth largest form of sport in the world and is leading the way in live events production, broadcasting and streaming, and content creation. The industry is made up of professional players, games publishers, event specialists, broadcast/streaming providers like Twitch and Youtube, and global sponsors and technology providers.

At the centre of your learning will be production and technology; you’ll develop your ability to understand and apply the technologies associated with putting on an Esports event.
