Learners enrolled: 32343

With the growth of Information and Communication Technology, there is a need to develop large and complex software. Further, those software should be platform independent, Internet enabled, easy to modify, secure, and robust. To meet this requirement object-oriented paradigm has been developed and based on this paradigm the Java programming language emerges as the best programming environment. Now, Java programming language is being used for mobile programming, Internet programming, and many other applications compatible to distributed systems. This course aims to cover the essential topics of Java programming so that the participants can improve their skills to cope with the current demand of IT industries and solve many problems in their own filed of studies.

INTENDED AUDIENCE : The undergraduate students from the engineering disciplines namely CSE, IT, EE, ECE, etc. might be interested for this course.

PREREQUISITES : This course requires that the students are familiar with programming language such as C/C++ and data structures, algorithms.

INDUSTRY SUPPORT : All IT companies.

CRITERIA TO GET A CERTIFICATE

This course will have an unproctored programming exam also apart from the Proctored exam, please check announcement section for date and time(DATE is YET TO ANNOUNCE). The programming exam will have a weightage of 25% towards the Final score.

Final score = Assignment score + Unproctored programming exam score + Proctored Exam score

Assignment score = 25% of average of best 8 assignments out of the total 12 assignments given in the course.
( All assignments in a particular week will be counted towards final scoring - quizzes and programming assignments).
Unproctored programming exam score = 25% of the average scores obtained as part of Unproctored programming exam - out of 100
Proctored Exam score =50% of the proctored certification exam score out of 100

YOU WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR A CERTIFICATE ONLY IF ASSIGNMENT SCORE >=10/25 AND
UNPROCTORED PROGRAMMING EXAM SCORE >=10/25 AND PROCTORED EXAM SCORE >= 20/50.

If any one of the 3 criteria is not met, you will not be eligible for the certificate even if the Final score >= 40/100.

Certificate will have your name, photograph and the score in the final exam with the breakup.It will have the logos of NPTEL and IIT Kharagpur .It will be e-verifiable at nptel.ac.in/noc.
