Game Development Lab

Johns Hopkins University Gaming Lab

A fully equipped development and testing lab has been created to support course-related and independent game development and exploration by JHU students.  The lab contains high-end workstations, including Nvidia graphics cards and an array of cutting-edge development software, as well as a large-format Samsung screen and 5.1 surround-sound system for testing and game play.   The Gaming Lab is located in Mattin/Offit Room 225, adjacent to the DMC.  Students may use the lab during regular DMC hours.

Resources for the JHU Gaming Lab and other gaming-related initiatives were gathered from existing equipment stock at the Digital Media Center and Department of Computer Science, personal donations by staff, software purchased by the Milton S. Eisenhower Library, a grant from the Smart Family Foundation managed by the Center for Educational Resources, an in-kind donation from Nvidia Corporation and a partnership with Valve Incorporated.
