Course Overview

Java is a popular programming language that offers a lot of opportunities to aspiring coders wanting to build a career for themselves. This course by Coursera brought in association with Duke University, is exactly what one needs.

Java Programming: Solving Problems with Software is although a single course but can be applied to use for Certificate Programs or Specialisation courses all the same because of its diverse syllabus on a beginner level. The candidates will learn a lot from the contents of the course like developing and debugging programs and designing algorithms.

It teaches problem-solving techniques that come in very handy in jobs thus providing essential industry-relevant skills and preparing candidates to become the best in their leagues. As the world etches closer to a highly digitized reality being in the coding business will profit the candidates largely, and this course is the way to it.
