By teaching students programming and technical concepts behind video game modding, this course empower them with the ability to modify video games.

Minecraft is one of the best selling video games of all time, and the ultimate pillar to showcase your creativity with building blocks. Minecraft provides a 3D canvas to create anything you have the resources for in the game, and just by tapping into the code, we now have the additional power to create anything we can imagine. The Minecraft modding class allows students to have full control over their 3D game world.
