Job Description
They offer a 13-week full time and 26-week part time data science boot camp in Austin, Boulder, Denver, Phoenix, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and New York City. The data science camp covers Python, SQL, and Hadoop. The software engineering camp covers full stack JavaScript including Node.js, Express.js, and AngulaJS.
Candidates need to submit their application at least 6 weeks before the course beginning date so they have enough time to complete the admission process. Students should ideally also have experience in Python programming, math, probability and statistics for doing the data science immersive course. For software engineering courses, students should learn the basics of CSS, HTML, and JavaScript and need to show the admission staff that they can solve problems like an engineer during their technical round.
Galvanize puts learning and working side by side and aims at teaching students the concepts and skills they need to make an impact in a new job, and improve their skills as well. They also offer short term courses and workshops.

Full Stack I Project Based Curriculum
Through their unique project-based curriculum, students are presented with programming and technical challenges of increasing complexity and difficulty. Through group and individual projects, students develop a deeper understanding of core coding skills and techniques. This program is designed to help students learn core skills to become a well paid software engineer. The course starts with command line interfaces and C, and over the first 9 months, students also learn higher languages like Python and JavaScript, Unix programming and scripting, data structure and algorithms, and more. After foundation, students can opt in one of four specializations: AR/VR, Low Level and Algorithms, Machine Learning and Full Stack Web Development. Students can choose what appeals to them the most and develop specialization in that field. They also get to build real time projects, organize meetups, get in touch with students and work with them for group projects.
