The University of Iowa and VictoryXR launched a virtual campus that can be used for remote learning and campus labs for residential students.
The
virtual space is primarily focused around the Tippie College of
Business, providing an interactive experience for students.
- The University of Iowa's new virtual campus
is already used in an MBA class about business technology and an
undergraduate business analytics course about visualizing and
communicating data.
- The platform requires students to register with VictoryXR and use a VR headset for the full 3D experience.
- The virtual campus can be used to improve the recruitment of international students by virtually walking them around campus.
- The virtual campus will add a new connection layer to remote learning and help students feel together in a room.
