I relocated from El Paso, Tx to Dallas, Tx with the sole purpose of attending the
SMU Coding Bootcamp. The entire process from the beginning to end was a delightful
journey. The program is well executed with plenty of support to aid you along
the way. Having a background in Logistics, this field was entirely new for me, but
boy did I learn more than I could have ever expected. I learned to build games,
create servers, work with libraries, store information on databases and so on.
The takeaway was substantial and now I am a new person. I went from having no
knowledge to building beautiful applications in the span of six months. As I
mentioned before the support offered was a great addition to the course. Having
either your private tutor or a one on one in class in addition to the instructors
support. Hats off to Mr. Shantanu, Carlos, Joey, Andrew and Kendrick for all their
help along the way. I also would like to thank Norma for all her support and
guidance on the journey towards employment with my new knowledge and I must add
Netreia who was always there making sure all my needs were met throughout the entire
course. I recommend this program to anyone who is thinking of either a) entering a
new field or b) expanding their current knowledge within the industry.

I had a good experience with SMU's coding bootcamp. All the teachers and TA's are real helpful and friendly. I landed a new postion as a Jr. Software Engineer a month or two before class had even ended.

I attended the SMU coding bootcamp from April-October of 2017. Before taking this course I had no knowledge of web or software development. To be honest, I was not tech savy in the slightest. Fortunately my instructors were highly knowledgable and passionate about coding. Matt Vella was my teacher and I never felt left behind with his teaching style. He made sure we didn't move on to the next technology/language until we understood the current lesson. In just 6 months, Matt and the teacher...

He made sure we didn't move on to the next technology/language until we understood the current lesson. In just 6 months, Matt and the teacher assistants, Megan and Tiffany helped transform me into a confident developer. I am excited for my new career to start and cannot praise this program enough.
