Computer Programming Courses


As the field of website design expands, developers have become responsible for many areas, including writing content, graphics, template layout, and online marketing. Beyond a thorough background in HTML5 and CSS, employers also demand developers to master other programming languages, such as JavaScript and php/mySQL. Given the technical nature of computer programming, about 1 in 7 developers were self-employed in 2015, at an average annual wage of $64,970. Further, job opportunities are projected to grow 27% over the coming decade.

It’s a good idea to compare all schools in your area, as well as consider taking some of your classes online to save on tuition fees. By continuing your education, you can improve your salary prospects, or train for a more interesting position. Financial aid deadlines are typically scheduled well in advance of regular admission dates, so be sure to apply early. You may request free information from several different schools, before making a commitment.

The skill-set for making websites doesn’t change much over time, but other critical areas such as software development, search engine optimization (SEO), and dynamic optimization, are constantly shifting as new tools become available. Success in website design is largely governed by two factors, visitor traffic and sales conversions. How many of the right people can you attract to your site, and how many of those people can you persuade to take the action that you want them to take? A good portfolio often is the deciding factor in getting a website design job.

Modern programming is becoming less about knowing how to program, and more about sourcing code snippets, and accessing software libraries. Google recently opened their Google Apps and APIs to developers, and the US government has literally thousands of free datasets to download which can be used commercially without a license.

Computer programmers write and test code that allows computer applications to function properly. They turn the program designs (psuedo-code) created by business managers and engineers into code that a computer can execute. Software developers start out with a bachelor’s degree in computer science or software engineering, although a degree in math is also acceptable. Computer science degree programs tend to cover a broad range of topics, including computer programming, data structures, artificial intelligence (AI), Ruby on Rails, computer graphics, visual object-oriented programming, and algorithm design. Moreover, most programmers specialize in multiple programming languages, such as php, ASP, C++, Python, JAVA, and SWIFT.

The median annual wage for computer programmers was $90,530 in May 2015. Employment of software developers is projected to grow 17 percent from 2014 to 2024, much faster than average. Software developers also need skills related to the industry in which they work. Developers working in a bank, for example, should have knowledge of finance so that they can understand a bank’s computing needs. In fact, many students gain experience in software development by completing an internship at a software company while in college.
