Computer & Data Science Courses That Are a Notch Above the Best. 

Passionate Instructors

Our instructors are Computer Science majors with years, not just a few months of training. They bring deeper insights and are better at answering “why is it so?” questions.

Adaptive Curriculum

Our curriculum is rigorous but adaptive, like an expert teacher, not fixed like a textbook. This allows every student to master the course regardless of their background.

Active Community

Our students learn in small cohorts but also engage in a larger community of Computer Science learners. Through peer engagement, our students learn as they help others.

Picasso didn't learn by watching lectures. Quantitative skills are the same. The all-time greats prioritize problem solving!

Active programming is the best way to learn computer science. Learn concepts through working on curated projects, and get active support from our expert teachers.

Start building your project portfolio with capstone projects at the end of every semester.

Hear From Our Students

  Data Science has helped me understand the endless possibilities and usages. I will definitely look forward to continuing a path in computer science.  

Data Science Student

  I found this class very intriguing. It helped me understand that computer science might be a career I would like to pursue in the future!  

AP® CSP Student

  I have more of an understanding about computer science and feel more comfortable jumping into other classes to see what other things I can do with Python.  

Intro to CS Student

  Data Science has encouraged me to take more classes to gain a stronger understanding of computer science. It has helped me realize the variety of applications for computer science.  

Data Science Student

  I felt engaged and curious about data science and even though I don't have any prior experience in Python, I felt like I did understand the material well.  

Data Science Student

  It was really exciting, and although STEM's not my corner, I actually enjoyed it. I learned that data science can be used in any discipline, not just for STEM.  

Data Science Student

  This class gave me a lot of insight in how to use computer science in the real world, and not just for an AP class. It was extremely useful.  

AP® CSP Student

  It has definitely made me more curious about data science and how programming plays a big part in it. It helped me remember why I enjoy programming and motivated me to continue coding.  

Data Science Student

  Data Science introduced me to a new side of computer science. I will definitely be taking many more classes in computer science over the next few years.  

Data Science Student

  It was pretty interesting, and I learned a lot about how to make graphs with Python, which is something I never really did with it before.
