Java Fundamentals
In order to be a great Java developer you must first learn the fundamentals of Java. This course introduces the fundamental concepts and practices of Java programming. These include basic Object-oriented Programming (OOP) concepts such as classes, encapsulation and inheritance, as well as core Java concepts such as collections, exceptions and commonly used Java types.
Advanced Java Programming Techniques
The best Java programs combine excellent software designs with modern language features. This course will teach you some lesser known features of Java, such as functional programming, I/O, serialization, and reflection. Strengthen your software design intuition by exploring the design ideas that underpin understandable, extensible and scalable software systems. Learn the basic concepts and techniques of concurrent programming in Java, so your programs can take advantage of modern, multi-core hardware.
Java Application Deployment
This course introduces Java ecosystem topics that are necessary to develop production-ready applications. It starts by covering the construction and makeup of Java program artifacts. You will learn how Java program code is compiled, packaged and executed. Next, you’ll learn how to use Maven to automate and customize the build process, as well as manage external project dependencies. This course also covers the topic of Modules, introduced in Java 9. In addition to build topics, this course will also teach you to use the tools of JUnit 5 to write unit tests and evaluate code coverage. To expand our testing capabilities for complex applications, the Mockito library and test doubles will be covered as well.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW - WHY SHOULD I TAKE THIS PROGRAM?
Why should I enroll?
Java is one of the most popular computer programming languages today. Java developers are in serious demand. In fact, there are hundreds of thousands of open job opportunities posted on job boards currently. This program was designed to help you take advantage of the growing need for skilled programmers.What jobs will this program prepare me for?
By the time you graduate, you’ll be prepared to land a high-paying role producing web applications in a professional setting. You’ll learn more than just writing code. For example, this Java class also teaches students to design and prototype apps using UI best practices to maximize engagement. Other Java tutorials are more piecemeal learning, but this will stand up a junior java developer so they can hit the ground running on a development team.How do I know if this program is right for me?
