About This Program

The undergraduate certificate in enterprise web applications from American Military University (AMU) offers a basic foundation in the theories and skills necessary to design, develop, and implement robust enterprise web applications.

This knowledge is particularly useful for organizations of all sizes, which often need enterprise application solutions to handle organizational tasks and meet projected goals. This online certificate will help you:

  • Learn how to apply and use object-oriented programming (OOP), HTML, JavaScript, Java, and e-commerce development solutions
  • Understand the process for building, testing, and deploying real-world Java applications

What You Will Do

  1. Understand the impact of Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE®) and Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE®) on IT Management, security, and global economies with regard to business ecommerce solutions on the web
  2. Study the principles and concepts of object-oriented programming (OOP) and evaluate their application in JavaScript and Java
  3. Grow your knowledge of the power and advantages of Extensible Markup Language (XML), which have made it the global standard for business data exchange and data dictionary standardization

This course introduces students to writing computer programs. The class presents the principles of structured programming using the Python® language, one of the most increasingly preferred languages for programming today. Because of its ease of use, it is ideal as a first programming language and runs on both the PC and Macintosh platforms. The course is designed for people without previous programming experience who do not necessarily plan on becoming professional programmers. However, the knowledge gained in the class can be applied later to other languages such as C and Java®. Participants learn to solve problems logically by breaking them into smaller pieces, which can then be solved. The course uses standard Python to afford a more interactive experience. Topics include: introduction to computing - how does a computer work?; input and output - getting information to and from the user; variables and expressions - performing arithmetic; data statements - reading information from inside the program; text files - reading information from other files; arrays - groups of variables; debugging - finding errors in your program; graphics; and formatting - changing how things look on the screen.
