Companies are globally leveraging the power of software engineering to transform their businesses – fueling an incessant demand for Web Developers. Our program gradually transforms students without programming experience into front-end developers who can build omni-channel, consumer facing, rich front-end SPAs using state-of-the-art technologies such as: Core Java, HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, JavaScript, Mocha, Chai and Angular.
Web Development Delivers the Internet Experiences
From fintech start-ups to global banks, from aggregator platforms to manufacturing giants, companies across sectors and geographies are leveraging the power of software engineering to transform their businesses – fueling an incessant demand for Software engineers and Web developers.
Front-end developers are expected to be skilled on multiple technologies and programming languages and have the capability to make appropriate choices and combine them effectively to build innovative, intuitive, interactive, and highly engaging applications. With the compression of software development lifecycles, companies are looking for ‘problem solvers’ i.e., developers who can work with sparse requirements by taking complete ownership of the problem/opportunity and managing the full solutions cycle from conceptualization to design and development, to scalable and high availability deployment.
Technology continues to evolve rapidly and has a shorter shelf life.
It is becoming harder for businesses to forecast the resources they need.
Full Stack Engineers who have a comprehensive technology skillset are in high demand.

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.
