Students in this summer course learn Java, one of the most powerful and high-level programming languages in the world. In fact, Java is the language most emphasized by universities within their computer science major.
This is a beginner course and is tailored for people who have little to no programming experience. Our instruction starts at the basics but quickly transitions into high-level programming topics such as object-oriented programming and recursion. By the end of the course, students reinforce what they've learned by creating an original portfolio-ready product using the Java language.
Additionally, students will gain a head start in the AP Computer Science class as our class teaches all the topics that the AP Computer Science class tests on.
Important Class Notes
Method of Delivery: Live Online (live-streamed with the ability to ask questions and interact with the instructor in real-time).
Prerequisites & Ages: The program is ideal for high school and college students with a strong interest in coding. Prior coding/programming experience is not required, but students must be comfortable with computer basics.
Computer: Live online attendees should have their own Mac or PC. We will assist with any software setup prior to the course.

Learn Java programming in this self-paced course designed for high school and college students with an interest in coding. Beginners will start with core programming concepts before moving into more advanced topics like object-oriented programming and recursion.
Students will also prepare for AP Computer Science or college-level programming by learning key Java concepts through a project-based curriculum. By the end of the course, they’ll apply what they’ve learned to create an original portfolio-ready project using Java.
Important Class Note: This self-paced program is ideal for high school and college students with a strong interest in coding. Prior coding or programming experience is not required, but students should be comfortable with basic computer use.
