We would like to congratulate four of our core UTS Games Studio members for recently achieving very important milestones in their research studies: 4 successful candidature assessments.

For the past couple of years, they have been working very hard on cutting-edge research topics that range from "AI-driven navigation in 3D Game Environments", through the "Exploration of Cooperation between AI and Humans", "Developing Solutions to Improve Accessibility in VR", "Exploration of Cognitive Load in VR to enhance Skills Aquicision" and the "Development of Game Development Practices to ensure Preservation"
