What if we told you that digital games are showing up more and more in college classrooms – and not just in the computer science, digital audio, and art departments? What if you could land a career in Esports, whether you are a player, content creator, analyst, or just passionate about gaming?

Baro Hyun, Founder & CEO of LunaTone and a globally renowned Esports expert and successful business owner in Japan and South Korea, will join UTK professors Gosia Citko-DuPlantis (Japanese Literature) and Tore Olsson (American History) in student-facing talks at the Volan 2025 (the annual Esports Tournament hosted by the student-run Esports Club at the University of Tennessee). The speakers will share their thoughts about what the future might hold for digital games as a gateway to higher learning and how to successfully position yourself in a fast-moving industry like Esports. They will offer practical advice on how to carve out your own path in your education and career.
