Real-Time Frontend

Back to Programs

This specialty was created for those who are interested in front-end development.

During the first semester, we focus on the essential fundamentals, such as basic concepts of math and programming, which are the same for all programs.

In the Math & Statistic course, students will learn about discrete mathematics and the basics of probability theory. Algorithms & Data Structures covers the basic algorithms on graphs, data structures, and recurrence relations. Also, during the first semester, students learn how to process and analyze data, and build simple models based on this data in the Data Science course. In the Advanced Programming Languages course, students will learn about programming languages and their fundamental differences.

During the second semester, you will first get acquainted with the main tools of Front-end development in the Introduction to Front-End Development course. In parallel with this, you will learn JavaScript, React, TypeScript and Angular in the Frontend programming languages course, as well as learn the principles of UX / UI Design. The result of the semester will be a written group project on the Real-Time Frontend course.
