Hi, I’m a student and I was wondering if there was a pricing especially for schools and classes.
Hey IAmAmazing,
The following information is provided to you from our [FAQ][1] page, hopefully this answers your questions regarding educational usage and Unreal Engine 4.
EDUCATIONAL USE
Can I teach Unreal Engine 4 in my classroom?
Epic Games enthusiastically supports educational use of Unreal Engine 4! For detailed information about the opportunities, see our Academic Use page.
What provisions does the Unreal Engine 4 End License Agreement (EULA) make for educational use?
Besides all of the free, friendly, and accessible terms for general use of UE4, academic institutions are authorized to install UE4 on any of their computers (e.g. in computer labs), and all users of those computers can access the engine.
What does this mean for students who wish to release UE4 projects commercially?
Students who choose to ship their class projects as commerical games are under the same EULA terms as other UE4 developers. Successful games that make more than $3,000 per quarter are obligated to pay Epic 5% of gross revenues.
Why is Unreal Engine 4 especially well-suited for computer science programs?
Because UE4 includes full C++ source, students have 100% visibility into the workings of one of the world’s leading-edge software projects. Students can learn from the design of UE4, and carry out their research in areas such as graphics, simulation, physics, and computer vision by extending the engine, while leveraging all of its existing capabilities. This is an amazing way to build real-world experience and a strong resume!
Can I create official documentation and textbooks?
Yes. We’d love to hear about any contributions you’d like to make. Please utilize our resources and share information with the community. You can kick off discussions about this on the forums, chat with us on Twitter, add to the Wiki and attend our weekly Twitch stream.
Cheers!
