The Home of Rutgers’ Online Gaming Community
The Rutgers Esports Center is a 2,700 square foot facility with 60 MSI gaming computers, 12 of which are equipped for players to play in national competitions. In addition to the competitive gaming stations, there is a space for console gaming for more casual players; a CRT station for gamers to bring their own equipment; and a VR experience.
The mission of the Esports Center is to create opportunities for student gamers to acquire crucial academic, social, and psychological skills through partaking in the Center services, programming, and community. We believe that students are best suited to develop and grow when they are given the opportunity to learn through the lens of their passions. We aim to improve the student experience, enhance academic learning opportunities, and create an area of distinction for the university through creating a physical home in which to foster the growth of the Rutgers gaming community.
The Esports Center is located inside the Busch Student Center near the food court.
