The Interactive Media and Game Development (IMGD) seminar is a weekly
meeting on topics of interest to IMGD. Some weeks, we have an outside
speaker from industry that will be talking on an IMGD topic. These
sessions will be presentation-type events, and open to the general
public. Other weeks, we have IMGD faculty lead informal discussions
about IMGD syllabi, text books, class projects and more. These
sessions may have presentations but will be less formal, conducive
for discussions.
