Unity China

American teens embedded at the world's leading real-time 3D engine

YGN partnered with Unity China to place U.S. high schoolers on-site in Shanghai, full-time for six weeks, across software development and marketing tracks under experienced mentors.

What students did

  • Software track: contributed to real-time 3D engine features and mini-game projects, tested new product functionality, and helped maintain systems software.
  • Marketing track: helped run in-person brand events, managed social content, and studied Unity's use across verticals.
  • Worked daily from Unity China's Shanghai office — a genuine cross-cultural, professional environment.

What they took away

Hands-on experience at a world-class tech company, mentorship from industry professionals, recommendation letters for standouts, and a network of driven peers from across the country.
