Project-based learning is a proven, alternative learning methodology to the traditional teacher-led lecture and memorization educational method. Rather than teaching a lot of theory and having students occasionally apply a fraction of their knowledge on a class project, we do the opposite. We give our students increasingly difficult programming challenges to solve with minimal initial directions on how to solve them. As a result, our students learn to look for the theory and tools they need, how to understand them, how to apply them, and how to work as a team.
Being a successful software engineer is more than just coding solo at a computer. The most successful engineers make their impact through brainstorming with peers, sharing techniques, pitching ideas, writing technical articles, and organizing meetups. In fact, Google recently found the seven top characteristics of success at Google are all soft skills. Our project-based curriculum pushes our students for better communication and teamwork, and our events, meetups, and talks help our students hone interviewing skills, tackle coding challenges, attend events with industry insiders, and more.
Ubunifu's business model is build around students getting the necessary skills they need to build a product then build a product while learning and launch it before they graduate. This is achieved by our weekly "Hustlers' Fridays" where students pitch what they are working on to a team of accomplished engineers, fellow students and people who run successfull startups. This is where we also evaluate individual student's progess. Before a student graduate we expect them to have a ready-to-market startup
