It's Your Education, Make an Informed Choice.

This course explains key concepts from both procedural and object-oriented programming perspectives. Students will get a general overview of the Java language and then learn how to do some fundamental things like create a main method, write comments and generate console output. Students will also learn how to run their first Java program.

Most Java programs require memory locations to store values during runtime. Students will learn about the different data types and how to use them in order to create memory as well as how to use memory in console applications and in Java dialog boxes.

Once the students have some experience writing Java classes, they will begin to write more complex classes. These classes will exploit the use of code blocks and variable scope that allow more efficient use of memory.

This course is an introduction to object-oriented programming in Java, where students learn analysis and design techniques of software engineering. Projects and assignments cover numerous aspects of program development.
