These courses introduce students
the concept of object-oriented programming. Topics include
basic and advanced features of Java as well as object-oriented
design, such as class and abstract class, interface, inheritance,
encapsulation, overloading and overriding, exception handling,
etc. Contact us
to obtain detailed syllabus.
This course heavily focuses on Computer Science aspect and application, not just the semantics of Java Programming. Therefore, it is considered to be more advanced than most regular “Learning Java Programming” course.

Although this is a continuation of Java I,
this course heavily focuses on Computer Science
aspect and application, software development, not
just the semantics of Java Programming. This
course will continue to cover more OOPS and other data
structure crucial to software development.
Therefore, it is considered to be more advanced than
most regular “Learning Java Programming” course, as well
as including many analysis and programming work.
This will be a great preparation for the students who
intend to take Advanced Placement Computer Science
class. This course will definitely give your
children a head start if they pursue classes in computer
related fields in college.
