Software Engineering Immersive

This is a Full Time Course

You will Learn Leading-Edge Skills for Software Engineers

Programming Fundamentals
Understand how to assemble your development environment, work efficiently as an engineer, and ensure your projects are a success. Learn programming fundamentals, along with the basics of computing, networks, and data structures.

Product Development Basics
Pinpoint what a user should be able to accomplish with your application, model your data accordingly, develop simple wireframes, and track a collaborative development process using version control.

Front-End Web Development
Gain an understanding of how to write high-quality JavaScript code, building a dynamic, front-end to a web application using a modern JS library, such as Angular or React.

Back-End Web Development
Learn to build web applications from the ground up using a modern web language and framework (like Ruby on Rails or Python and Django). Develop high-quality APIs using Node.js and integrate data from other apps (such as Twitter or Yelp) into your project.

Team Collaboration Strategies
Discover how to effectively communicate and collaborate with development teams. Produce high-quality software as you work with a team to build, maintain, change, and secure a full-stack application.

By the end of our Software Engineering Immersive, you will be able to:

• Create responsive web pages for modern browsers using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
  
• Write full-stack applications and deploy them to cloud-based services like Heroku.
  
• Demonstrate programming and computer science fundamentals, as well as software engineering best practices.
• Consume web application programming interfaces (APIs) from third-party sites such as Twitter, Google, or Yelp.
• Build a RESTful API using a technology like Sinatra, Rails, Django, or Express.
• Build a richly interactive, front-end single-page application using a modern framework like Angular or library like React.
• Collaborate as a team using Git and GitHub, widely accepted collaboration practices, and an Agile development workflow.
• Implement common data structures encountered in technical interview situations, such as linked lists and trees.
• Solve algorithm challenges and analyze the computational complexity of algorithms using Big O notation.
