Certain university students will have the opportunity to visit the Game Developers Conference Europe, courtesy of the International Game Developers Association. Those selected by the IGDA would be able to attend all sessions, roundtables, panels, and keynotes at the GDC Europe. The conference runs from Tuesday, August 30th through Thursday, September 1th at London's Le Meridien Hotel. Interested students must meet the sponsorship's qualifications, which include full-time enrollment at a university and membership of the IGDA. 10 applicants will be selected by the IGDA Board of Directors, the Education Committee, and the Studio Affiliate heads. Deadline for entry is Wednesday, July 20; the membership application is currently available online. "The annual Student Scholarship program provides students with a peek into the game creation process," says Jason Della Rocca, executive director of IGDA. "It's one exciting way the IGDA supports aspiring game creators." [GDCE is presented by the CMP Game Group, organizers of the Game Developers Conference and Serious Games Summit, and publishers of Game Developer Magazine and Gamasutra.com.]
