Curriculum

The sections describe the learning stages and outlines what you will learn as you progress through the program.

1.
Programming Fundamentals with Kotlin

You begin by learning core programming concepts using Kotlin, the primary language for Android development. This stage focuses on building a solid foundation in logical thinking and problem-solving.

You will learn to:

  • Write clear and readable Kotlin code
  • Work with variables, control flow, and functions
  • Understand object-oriented programming concepts
  • Break down problems into structured solutions

No prior programming experience is required.

2.
Android App Development

You then move on to building Android applications using Android Studio and the Android framework. This stage focuses on how Android apps are structured and how different components work together.

You will learn to:

  • Create and structure Android projects
  • Work with activities, fragments, and navigation
  • Understand application state and lifecycle
  • Build Android apps that are maintainable and scalable

This is where programming fundamentals are applied to real Android applications.

3.
User Interface and Interaction Design

A central part of Android development is creating applications that are intuitive and usable. In this stage, you learn how to design and implement user interfaces for mobile devices.

You will learn to:

  • Build layouts that adapt to different screen sizes
  • Create interactive and responsive interfaces
  • Apply accessibility and usability principles
  • Translate design concepts into functional Android UI
4.
Data, Networking, and APIs

Modern Android applications interact with both local and remote data. This stage focuses on working with data storage and external services.

You will learn to:

  • Store and manage local application data
  • Communicate with external APIs
  • Handle asynchronous operations
  • Work with real-world data flows

This enables you to build applications that interact with real systems and services.

5.
Testing, Debugging, and Code Quality

Professional development requires more than writing code. You will learn how to ensure your applications are reliable, maintainable, and structured.

You will learn to:

  • Test Android applications
  • Debug issues efficiently
  • Improve code quality and structure
  • Follow development practices used in professional teams
6.
Project-Based Development

Throughout the program, you apply your skills by building complete Android applications. Projects increase in complexity over time and reflect real development work.

By the end of the program, you will have:

  • Built multiple Android applications
  • Worked on end-to-end projects
  • Gained practical experience relevant to junior Android developer roles

Projects are an essential part of learning and reinforce skills across all stages of the curriculum.

7.
Development Tools & Workflow

Throughout the program, you will work with the same tools and development workflows used by professional Android developers in the industry. These tools are integrated into the learning process and used consistently across projects and assignments.

You will work with:

  • Android Studio and IntelliJ IDEA for Android and Kotlin development
  • Git for version control and source code management
  • GitHub for collaboration, code sharing, and project tracking
  • Zeplin for design handoff and translating design specifications into Android interfaces

You will also practice working within development workflows similar to those used in professional teams.

Internship

The internship lasts 12 weeks and focuses on applying your skills in a professional work environment.

1
Guaranteed Placement

Internship placement is guaranteed for all students.

All placements are arranged and coordinated by the school in collaboration with our network of partner companies. Students are not expected to search for internships independently or manage the placement process on their own.

Depending on the placement, you may:

  • Contribute to features in Android applications
  • Work with existing codebases
  • Apply development workflows used in professional teams
  • Collaborate with other development teams and stakeholders

The focus is on applying the skills you developed during the program in a real-world context.

3
Partner Companies and Industry Context

Internships take place at companies across a range of industries, such as technology, media, automotive, energy, and digital services. This provides exposure to different organizational structures and technical environments where Android development is applied in practice.

While the specific placement may vary depending on availability and company needs, all internships are selected to provide relevant experience connected to Android development.

4
Preparing for the Job Market

The internship strengthens your readiness for junior Android developer roles by combining technical training with real workplace experience.

Through the internship, you will:

  • Gain experience working in a professional development environment
  • Better understand expectations in a development role
