Mission
The initiative of IE is to devote and support an Esports community on campus. Our
mission is to allow members to develop a passion for Esports and the social, curricular, and
industry tie-ins surrounding Esports. It is important to understand the multiple facets of the
industry that span across many fields. As with traditional sports, a multitude of careers coincide
within the Esports industry, making it relevant for students, graduates, faculty, and the
community to explore, study, and grow. At UIUC, IE has paved the way for competitive video
gaming, and with the unity of many academic interests on campus, will work to grow esports
locally and nationally.
