In line with the objectives and goals of the KÜN Computer Programming Program, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) have been defined.
Program Objectives:
The main goal of our Computer Programming Program is to train qualified personnel who possess both theoretical and practical skills required by the industry and have maximized these skills. The intended skills and competencies are as follows:
1. To develop problem-solving abilities.
2. To design and query small, medium, and industrial-level databases.
3. To gain the ability to develop software (web, mobile, desktop).
4. To conduct innovation- and creativity-oriented work.
5. To carry out efficiency- and automation-oriented (industrial) projects.
Program Goals:
Within the scope of the Computer Programming Program, the following fundamental goals have been set to meet the sector’s needs in the broad field covering software development processes and the production of computer programs:
1. To gain proficiency in various programming languages (C#, Java, Python, JavaScript) and develop projects using these languages.
2. To learn and apply algorithms and data structures.
3. To understand and implement the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and adhere to software development principles.
4. To take part in teamwork and improve project management skills.
5. To enable computer programmers to advance in their careers and continually learn about new technologies and trends.
6. To gain practical experience through internships and workplace training programs.
