Fullstack development in Java rests on theoretical foundations in, among other things, web development,
programming technique, working methods, programming methodology, communication and documentation.
Java in the tech industry covers the technology stacks and common models for organising work.
The theoretical foundation in the courses Web Technology and Frontend Development & UX is functional: how web browsers
work and how web pages are structured with HTML, CSS and Javascript/frameworks, as well as usability
After completing the programme with a pass grade, the student should have:
- Specialised knowledge of theoretical and practical system and web development in the professional role of Java developer
- Knowledge of work processes, environments and quality criteria in theoretical and practical development on the Java platform and with, for example, JavaScript and TypeScript
- Solutions, technologies and distinguishing features of the Java platform, such as ME, Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition
- Adjacent professional and competence areas such as interaction design, project management, security and DevOps
- Security in IT systems at an overall level, including an understanding of information security, privacy protection, and processes and tools for increasing security
- Basic principles of machine learning and AI and their relevance to software development
- AI techniques, tools and frameworks that are or may become relevant to the role of fullstack developer
