Training Program - Path Adjust - Programming in Java

General Objectives of the Course

The program Path Adjust has as main focus the development of programming skills in Java. It provides both theoretical background and an intensive practical knowledge in programming techniques, which is complemented with a final project. The course units Introduction to Programming and Advanced Programming in Java allow the student to develop applications in Java with some level of complexity by using updated programming technologies. The course units Operating Systems, Databases and Network Communications and Internet Technologies provide complementary knowledge. In the course unit Project, the student applies the programming concepts introduced in the previous course units in a practical context. The internship provides experience, and further learning, in a real software development context.
