Challenges
UCR has been least known schools in the University of California system, which is unfortunate because they are home to one of the most renowned engineering and science departments in the nation. In addition, they are home to one of the most gorgeous campuses in California, with new state of the art classrooms, dining, and housing facilities going up yearly. In order to help the rest of the world see this, they hired Invision Studio to create a 360° Virtual Tour walkthrough of every part of their campus as well as photograph every facet of their outstanding University.
