DESCRIPTION
Java is a complete programming language which can be used to write applets that enhance existing Web pages, or embedded Web based applications.
Through lecture and hands on labs, this course introduces students to all aspects of this high level programming langugage.

ASSUMED KNOWLEDGE
Students should have programmed in a t least one programming language - preferably C or C++.
Some familiarity with Object Oriented Programming is desired but not required.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Compile and run a Java application
Understand the role of the Java Virtual Machine in achieving platform independence
Navigate through the API docs
Use the Object Oriented paradigm in Java programs
Understand the division of classes into Java packages
Use Exceptions to handle run time errors
Select the proper I/O class among those provided by the JDK
Use threads in order to create more efficient Java programs
Create Java applets and run them either through a Java enabled browser or the appletviewer
Develop Graphical User Interfaces
Use combinations of Layout Managers in developing complex graphical interfaces
Understand the Java Event Model and thus be able to write programs which process data via a Graphical User Interface
Be able to write simple Network programs using TCP/IP
Write programs using both Swing and AWT components

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This course is designed for applications programmers and designers planning to develop applications running in Java enabled Browsers or as standalone executables
