"Mr. Zyda was my professor at USC and director of the USC Games program. He was super nice to the students, especially to international students like me. Apart from his professionalism, he frequently organized networking events and brought industry resources to the students, which was pretty helpful for the job seeking. Mr. Zyda made a lot of contributions to the USC Games program. Respect."

"Mike Zyda is the architect behind the world’s #1 game design program. By founding USC Games, he created a gold standard that bridged the gap between hard computer science and creative media. His "advanced game projects" course alone has fueled an alumni network responsible for $250B in revenue and titles played by billions. An ACM and IEEE Fellow, Mike combines world-class technical mastery with the strategic foresight needed to scale startups and push the boundaries of interactive media. I'm proud to call him a friend, colleague and mentor."

"Mike is one of the most incredible computer scientists ever. And I know many of them. Please consider my opinion to my endorsement."
