A trip to MGM Grand (Cotai) was organized on March 20. There were altogether 11 3rd year students and 1 teacher joining the field trip. In the trip, some HR and IT staff (Rachel Chu and Crystal) gave us a brief tour around the premise, including the hotel resort, data center, IT development lab, employee and guest facilities etc. The Gaming IT manager (Samuel) showed us a Baccarat table game operating system called “CCAS” developed by Walker Digital (US) company. Finally, the senior IT manager (Charles) walked us through the data center. Through the trip, the students are exposed to some operations and practices; and the up-front technologies adopted in a large-scale gaming operator. The trip started at 10:00 and finished at 12:30.
