What will you learn

The curriculum emphasizes autonomous learning and practical application. It offers over 100 coding projects and is frequently updated to keep pace with industry demands.

In the common core you learn the foundations of software engineering: programming in C, algorithms and software development, file systems, UNIX, sysadmin and network architecture, graphics, web, C-Unix programming, object-oriented programming, and more!

This part of studies lasts on average 1,5 years. Then you test your new skills in the real world with a 4-6 month paid internship. Afterward, you can choose what to specialize in (or you can finish your studies).

SPECIALIZATIONS

The second part is the specialization, where participants get to decide which direction they want to move forward in: fields such as AI, mobile or web development, cybersecurity, or a combination of these fields are at your disposal – and more. This program includes over 100 projects to complete in groups, and also feature second internships and entrepreneurial programs.

_________

Our unique approach focuses on practical skills rather than theoretical knowledge, preparing you for real-world challenges with progressively harder programming tasks. You’ll learn to work independently in a supportive culture of trust and self-management.

We will help you to unlock your potential, whether you aspire to work in top tech companies, solve big problems in the world or create your own products and services.
