Joert Edink (Netherland):
As a student coming from abroad, personally I’m having a great time here at AIGA. If you’re serious into Game Design there is so
joert
much to learn and the dedicated teaching staff will always help you along the way, all the people have been amazingly friendly.
Eunsil (Korea):
Hello. my name is Eunsil (most of my indian friends just called me "Sil"). I am from korea.
 I learned a lot of things in India, especially at AIGA for 1 year. It was one of the courses in the university as my major was Digital contents.
(most of my university friends study about game or media) that’s why I decided to come here to AIGA. when I started the course first, I didn't know anything even the tools, lot of my Indian friends and teachers helped me when i didn't know about something so i tried to stay and learn more and more at AIGA. That's why I could complete the whole course of study. I graduated from the university last month.

 My Indian life at AIGA has made me a better person than before and I will never forget about it. I shall put my shoulder to the wheel to make my dream come true for being a 3d art modeler.
