Virtual Reality

LBCC is bringing virtual reality (VR) to campus.  The immersive classroom and free-roam pod are scheduled to open at the Liberal Arts Campus in Spring 2026.   

LBCC wants students to have access to cutting-edge technology as we prepare them for the jobs of the future.  For this innovation, we are partnering with Dreamscape Learn, a VR company based locally in LA County that is dedicated to higher education.  Their VR platform has led to dramatic course improvements for students at Arizona State University and other colleges.  It will provide professors and students with new tools to feel engaged and inspired.   

Available curriculum includes Biology, Chemistry, Art History, and Astronomy (coming soon).  LBCC instructors also will be able to create their own VR experiences in the immersive classroom and bring students to places they wouldn’t otherwise be able to access—underwater, on the moon, at the top of a volcano, or in historical and geological sites such as the Egyptian pyramids, Death Valley, Angkor Wat, Teotihuacán, the Louvre Museum, or Ghana’s “Door of No Return.”
