The Virtual Classroom Experience
What’s it like inside the classrooms of Washington University Boot Camps? Our programs are intensive and immersive—combining lectures with solo and collaborative team exercises. Students get the chance to work alone outside of class and work in groups in the classroom.
Strategic homework assignments give students hands-on practice on the lessons learned in class, allowing them to fine-tune their skills. We believe that applying your skills on projects is pivotal to mastering new material. In class, students not only receive a dynamic learning experience, but they also gain insight into a “day in the life” of a web developer, data analyst or cybersecurity professional.
To give students a truly immersive learning experience, we provide an intimate class setting with a low instructor to student ratio. In addition to our talented instructional team, students have dedicated TAs in the classroom to provide wide-ranging support.
Students do all of their coursework via laptop, eliminating the need for books or additional class materials. Our course structure is broken up into three main groups.
Discussion
Instructors lead class discussions and cover the history, background, and use of a new concept or technology.
Lab Work
You’ll put the material covered in class into action by working on timed in-class exercises and projects.
Portfolio Projects
Your portfolio is the culmination of all of your hard work—showing employers that you have the skills for the job. You’ll create a strong portfolio of projects that proves your knowledge across a vast array of technologies.
