Course Description


Java is the premier development language for web servers, enterprise servers, network applications, embedded devices, appliances and wireless applications.

This course, which covers Java 21+, teaches students to apply object-oriented concepts, design and develop Java applications, and use Java libraries. You¡¯ll learn to write, maintain and debug applications, and make effective use of standard packages. You¡¯ll also learn key design concepts and implementation skills needed for professional Java programming. Additionally, you'll explore leveraging AI tools to enhance coding efficiency and debugging.
