Introducing Virtual Reality and Career in VR

[Janaka Prabhash Kumarasinghe]

Hi friends,

Dr. Prasad has organized a special session on virtual reality for the students who are keen on pursuing a career in VR/Graphics/Simulations.

UCSC is the only place in Sri Lanka that has virtual reality in the curriculum. So, I think it's a great chance for all of you to get an idea on virtual reality technology, it's current state and job opportunities in VR. This is not merely for students who did VR, but for anyone.

A session was scheduled on 25th of Thursday at 4.00pm in the Prof. V.K. Samaranayake.

The lecture will be delivered by Dr. Romesh Ranawana. He owns a company that uses virtual reality technology (http://www.simcentric.com.au/

). I think he will describe some of their massive projects as well after giving you some idea on the state of the art and VR career.


Please let Dr. Prasad, Manju ayya (Manju Wickremasinghe<manju_wick...@yahoo.com>) or me(janakap...@gmail.com) know, if you have any problem. Since this is the last week, I don't think we can extend...

Bye,

Prabhash
