Web Development

Programming using an Object-Oriented language is a survival skill in software engineering. Initially, this program helps Students build a strong programming foundation, with a special emphasis on using relevant data structures and algorithms, and improving design by addressing issues such as cohesion, coupling, and modularization. They will learn how to write software that is understandable, flexible, and easy to maintain through the application of SOLID principles.

Post the foundation phase, Students are introduced to application prototyping. They learn the process of systematically converting their prototypes into interactive and responsive web pages that can be accessed from multiple devices. Further on, they learn to build Single Page Applications (SPAs) that allow users to navigate to different parts of a web application without waiting for the pages to be re-loaded. This is a key aspect of the modern responsive web experience for end-users. Overall, Students become competent at building front-end web applications, ensuring software quality through test automation, and communicating and collaborating with team members.

Student Guidelines

• Students must possess the curiosity and a determination to persist with the demanding hands-on exercises and assignments.
• In addition, Students need to fulfil the below requirements:
• High School Diploma from an accredited institution
• Spoken and written English skills
• Appropriately configured PC with webcam and headset
• Uninterrupted internet connection
• Uninterrupted time to complete the learning activities on schedule

Delivery Guidelines

• Students must possess the curiosity and a determination to persist with the demanding hands-on exercises and assignments.
• Live online lectures on context-setting and concept building concepts.
• 60% of the program is hands-on i.e. in each program, a Student would spend over 60% of time on coding or hands-on activities

Students who are keen on taking up a Web Development role or those looking for a career shift into Web Development can take up this program. No prior programming experience is required to do this program - just curiosity and a determination to persist with the demanding hands-on exercises and assignments.

Some other basic requirements are:

• High School Diploma from an accredited institution.
• Spoken and written English skills.
• Appropriately configured PC with webcam and headset.
• Uninterrupted internet connection.
• Uninterrupted time to complete the learning activities on schedule.

Our program gradually transforms students without programming experience into front-end developers who can build omni-channel, consumer facing, rich front-end SPAs.

On successful completion of all the assignments and projects, each student will be able to:

• Solve problems, implement data structures, and have the ability to code, compile, and run programs using the Core Java language
• Make use of appropriates data structures and algorithms in their programs
• Build responsive web pages using HTML5, CSS3 and Bootstrap
• Implement interactivity in web pages using Modern JavaScript
• Perform unit testing using Mocha and Chai
• Build single page applications using Angular
• Develop end-to-end test cases for Angular
• Use Git to implement source code control and version management
• Work in an Agile team
• Apply software engineering best practices to develop high quality code
