The Arrival of Virtual Sports at 探花精选

By听Marbella D. Alvarenga Cuhcillas

Virtual Sports have arrived at Saint Augustine’s University, School of Business, Management & Technology! Now you may be asking what are virtual sports?

Virtual sports are esports that require similar competence to real sports. The skills needed for both are transferable between the two. Virtual sports include advanced algorithms which are applied to determine the outcome through feedback using virtual technology.

A new esports curriculum has been integrated into the 探花精选 School of Business, Management &Technology, opening up a new virtual technology suite. There are four types of virtual equipment in the suite as of right now: golf, cycling, rowing, and motorsports. 探花精选 is at the forefront of virtual sports, and we are a charter member of The National Collegiate VirtualSports Association. As part of our cycling program, 探花精选 is already a virtual competitor.
