The ETC is one of the most well known graduate programs in the US for games and is over 50% international students.</p><p>More info can be found here: <a href="http://www.etc.cmu.edu/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.etc.cmu.edu/">http://www.etc.cmu.edu/</a></p>sjsivakMon, 20 Jul 2009 12:59:35 -0000
