Rutgers Coding Bootcamp

Earner demonstrated proficiency in web development focused on Full Stack languages in high demand. Through coding assignments and challenges augmented by three team projects, experience is gained in collaborating to build front-end and back-end web applications. Problem-solving skills are learned by researching and applying new skills independently. Graduates maintain a complete a portfolio of projects and demonstrate the ability to adapt and apply learning across industries and employers. The course includes a total of 240 contact hours for a total of 24 continuing education units. Earning Criteria -- Demonstrating Collaborative Front-End Development: For their first project, students are tasked to collaborate in small groups to conceptualize and build creative complex web apps by leveraging outside data sources and applying technical knowledge. Once completed, students are expected to prepare a professional presentation where they demonstrate interview skills by speaking technically about different project features while also explaining the software development process. -- Demonstrating Collaborative Full Stack Development: For their second project, students work in groups to conceptualize an inclusive, complex full-stack web app. Their app should follow industry-recognized accessibility standards. Students are expected to delegate responsibilities among their groups based on the pre-determined project requirements. Upon completion, students are asked to effectively demonstrate and explain their full-stack app through professional group presentations. -- Final Project: Students combine technologies learned throughout the course to develop a web app that satisfies a real-world demand. Upon completion, the app should include developed, complex, core features and be deployed as to be accessed by real-world users. For their final presentation, groups present project work in a narrative form that demonstrates the final application and clearly outlines the development process, as well as defending design decisions. -- In addition to the three projects, students must complete and turn in all but two homework assignments in order to stay eligible for the course certificate.
