    University of Denver Boot Camps Full Stack Web Development Full Time

    Taking The University of Denver Boot Camps Full Stack Web Development Course was one of the best decisions I have ever made.

    A Single Mom's Journey to Web Development

    I enrolled at DU's Bootcamp and began my program in September 2018. I was nervous about the courseload, and nervous about being 'smart enough' to learn how to code. I've been a massage therapist since 2003, a musician/vocalist/songwriter my entire adult life, I'd received my A.A.S in English in 2011 (at age 28), and had been working for three years as an educational administrator for a national association. Although my position had given my brain some exercise, and I realized I enjoyed pro...

    Way to go, Ashley! Thank you for choosing our program to make such a significant career change. We're thrilled to hear you took advantage of all the boot camp's available resources and gained confidence in your web development skills. You've given great advice for aspiring women in tech and all prospective students—the program is rigorous, but if you're tenacious and keep reminding yourself of why you started on this journey, you can push through and come out stronger on the other side! We're incredibly proud of all the hard work and commitment you dedicated, especially as you balanced a full-time schedule at work and at home. Congratulations on successfully completing the course and embarking on a new role! We wish you continued success in all that you do.

    Reality Check

    At the risk of shooting myself in the foot…I’d like to present a reality check of the DU Data Analytics bootcamp based on my experience last year and hopefully help someone who’s considering whether or not to drop 10 grand on the dream.

    First of all, class lectures were pretty frustrating and more demoralizing than encouraging. Secondly, the support system isn’t really geared for those who are struggling.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback, Chris. We're happy to hear you found our instructional team to be knowledgeable and benefited from the insight of our career services team. 

    From your review, we understand that you were frustrated by the high-level nature of the class lectures. As the technical job market continuously changes, our program is designed to help individuals graduate with the necessary skills to quickly learn new frameworks and languages on their own. As such, our instructors cover multiple topics in a limited amount of time. We do our best to communicate to students that topics are introduced at a high-level in-class, after which individuals are expected to dive in, and not only gain a deeper understanding of the concepts but also practice their skills outside of the classroom. Each lesson builds on the last and we find that as the curriculum progresses, most participants feel increasingly confident in the knowledge they've gained. This methodology helps individuals learn how to problem-solve and self-teach — crucial abilities needed in any data role. Due to the fast pace of the course, as well as the challenging topics covered, we do offer several means of support including office hours, Slack, and free tutoring sessions. Were you able to take advantage of these?

    Our entire boot camp team is passionate about making sure students are supported, so we regret that you felt your Student Success Manager was not responsive. While we support many students throughout the program, we do our best to ensure that all inquiries are addressed and students' needs are met. Like you mentioned, we do require participants to submit weekly feedback on instructor clarity, engagement, and knowledgeability. The student experience is our number one priority and our teams meet every week to monitor and optimize classroom performance. We truly appreciate your input, as we're constantly working on improving our support to ensure individuals have the best learning experience possible.

    While we work hard to prepare students to step out into the job market, we do not secure direct employment. We help individuals become employer competitive through a variety of resources and tools, including technical interview training, portfolio reviews, resume/social media profile support, online Tech Talk panels, and one-on-one coaching with their Career Director.

    It's our goal for all students to complete the program feeling equipped with the knowledge and resources they need to find the right tech role. If you would like, please reach out to us at (303) 747-4493 to further discuss any other ways we can assist you at this time.

    Part-time Web Developer Bootcamp

    I decided to attend the Web Developer Bootcamp at University of Denver based on the reviews of this site. That has turned out to be one of the best education decisions I have made to date.

    I was previously in the medical field, but realized that it was not for me. I knew I needed to do something else, so I started to look into web development. I learned a lot of HTML and CSS on my own, but realized that I needed some guidance and help with Javascript and other technologies. I appli...

    Tough but Rewarding!

    I was very impressed with this program overall, as well as the investment and passion displayed by the instructor and TA's. I attended the full-time bootcamp from January-April. The class is definitely rigorous, but a great foundation to learn and improve on your own in the future. I would recommend this program to anyone interested in a coding bootcamp.

    I couldn't be more satisfied with my decision to invest in a DU coding bootcamp! I did the MERN, full-stack, flex bootcamp on nights and weekends and had a great experience! I had a feeling it would be top-notch, as one would expect from such a prestigious institution, and I was not disappointed in the least.

    I researched several coding bootcamps before deciding on DU's Full Stack Bootcamp. I had zero coding experience. This course will test you mentally and physically. Be prepared to put in more hours of work than expected. It was definitely the hardest thing I've done academically BUT it was worth it!
