Baltimore Catalog
Students can pursue a career as an entry-level Java programmer. Java programmers write, modify, and test Java code for a variety of computer applications including desktop, web, mobile, gaming, big data, and cloud-based. Java programmers often work closely with developers and designers to create fully integrated programs and applications for their companies or clients. Taking an introductory approach, this Java training program covers most Java syntax elements, concentrating on fundamental and universally useful elements, while providing an overview of many more advanced elements. Students will learn to write useful Java classes, apply Object-Oriented concepts such as inheritance, and create Java programs that work with these classes. Since this course is delivered completely online, students will need to have the self-discipline to complete all required material on their own. A course instructor will be available to assist students with questions and to lead online activities during the course of the class.
