I studied abroad in Montreal. Champlain does a fantastic job at treating you like a young independent professional as I have said multiple times now, but Montreal is a step even further. It felt amazing to commute to campus on the public transportation and receive a very hands-off approach to the management of our projects. I highly recommend it to anyone who could attend. You still have the full support network of the Champlain staff but in a study abroad experience.

It may just be the general college experience, but being treated like an adult who is here to learn is such a freeing feeling. The professors help embody that experience. There are not a lot of secrets to what make a good teacher in life. Letting you own your own mistakes, helping you learn from those mistakes, and fostering a work environment that is reminiscent of the real world all help make you a better student.

The Champlain professors are some of the most experienced, professional, and passionate individuals you can meet. Their dedication to your development as a professional is impressive to say the least. It is extremely difficult to make games, especially to do it well. Your whole education at Champlain is focused around becoming a professional ready to jump in head first to your field after graduation. That focus is reflected in how you feel when talking with industry professionals about the work you do here.
