    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the difference between a classic subscription to a JavaRush course and JavaRush University

    At JavaRush University:

    • training is led by mentors
    • classes are held in small groups
    • students write large term paper projects, gain experience with advanced Java technologies, which can then be added to the portfolio
    • there is regular support in the slack chat, where Java experts promptly answer any questions about Java theory and problem solving
    • employment assistance is provided: the JavaRush career center checks your resume, prepares you for searching for suitable vacancies and passing interviews
    • At the request of students, additional electives and live sessions are organized to answer questions and more

    What are the student level requirements?

    JavaRush is designed for both people with zero knowledge in programming, and for specialists who partially know the Java language, but want to improve their skills or repeat the material.

    How many hours a week do you need to devote to studying?

    We recommend devoting at least 10-12 hours per week to studying at the university. The bigger, the better.

    Why is the course 12 months long?

    12 months is the optimal period of time to study theory and develop skills for the position of Junior Java Developer. You will go step by step through all the required levels under the guidance of current Java developers.

    Do I need to know English to study at Java University?

    The training does not require fluency in English, but minimal knowledge is required to write code, find additional information, or learn how to use programs in English in the future.

    How do you help with employment?

    After completing the course, you will have every chance to get a job as a Junior Java Developer, as you will receive all the necessary knowledge and skills for this position. The JavaRush Career Center will help you write a resume and prepare future professionals for an interview.

    Can I pay for the program monthly?

    It is possible to pay monthly tuition. The cost will be 7900 rubles / 105 USD / 92 euros / 2950 UAH per month.

    What salary can I expect after passing JavaRush University?

    The average salary in the labor market for Java Junior is up to $1000, for Middle Java Developer — from $1400, and for Senior Java Developer — from $3000.

    Why should I choose your course?

    JavaRush has been the world’s leading Java learning expert for 9 years. Java and the training of IT specialists working with this language is our key specialization.

    The program of our University is designed taking into account the requirements for novice Java developers in the labor market and the experience of thousands of JavaRush graduates.

    Mentors step by step introduce students to the theoretical part of learning Java and interact regularly in chats to resolve questions and misunderstandings.

    The course is filled with many variations of the application of Java theory in practice to consolidate the material covered and use it in future projects. These are 1200 tasks with automatic solution checking, mini-projects for passing each module and the final group project that you can add to your portfolio.

    Payment for tuition can be made monthly, which is convenient for planning your budget.

    Victor Sheff

    I was asked here at work "how is your Java?". He answered that, they say, I pass exceptions, wrap, throw out, try-with-resources and all that. In response to this, I received the task: "dachshund question - you get an int[] array as input. Return only even numbers from the array and return it as a List"

    Andrey Pazyuk

    Now we have started learning about Spring. The course is good, though rarely in places it is written terribly lazily and difficult. But in general, I did not regret that I studied on it. After 2 months, the end of the course and job search. I highly recommend it to anyone thinking of doing it. There really is a meaning. There is enough information even to become a middle, not like a junior. The main thing is to be persistent and not give up half way. Beaver everyone!

    Maxim

    In November 2021, I thought about programming, before that I had no experience, from the word at all. The only thing at school was 5ki in kyubesik-everything.
    I set a deadline of a week to decide on the language and the direction of the back or front. Having studied the vacancies, I decided to study Java. And then it began: schools, courses, etc. so much so that advertising then climbed from everywhere, after he began to go to everyone and study the training program.
    Since he himself could not choose, "expensive mistake price" == time from 6 to 12 months + a bundle of money. I began to look for acquaintances who are in the "subject".
    Thanks to the "eychar" wife, we found a colleague from an IT company, which recommended JavaRush.
    From many hours of conversation, I heard something important for me: "The most prepared Juners come to social services."

    About study.
    Those who are from 0 have to work hard ... I just happen to be “plugged” for a day (and sometimes more) I can’t understand what’s going on, I start asking mentors, the community, videos, additional study materials and then bam, it came / cut through and went further, solve problems and pass lectures until you reach the next "barrier". There are topics that I do not fully perceive and I try to run them in practice.

    In short, I believe that the walker will pass the road. I did not notice how 2.5 months have passed - the mood is without options - TO BECOME A PROGRAMMER. All good.

    P.S. when you buy books, see what version of Java is in this publication, there is such a "junk", and pay 1.5-2.5k :)

    Irina

    This course is very different from the usual. I tried the regular one in August, but then a lot of work appeared: I overworked and could not start.

    When I signed up for this course, many problems also arose: there was no time for studying. But the fact that there is a certain pace with which the group goes makes me catch up with the material and find the time.

    And in general, the material is presented in a different way: all topics are in order, very thoughtfully, there are mentors who not only lecture the material, but always prompt. And the fact that I have the support of classmates who are ready to help, call, explain is worth a lot.

    So far I have not come across topics that I cannot master, but I worry that this can happen, and the understanding that I have support, people who are trying to help me not be left alone with the problem, is very inspiring.

    Pavel

    I'm delighted, great presentation, interesting. Lectures are watched in one breath. The teachers are great, the presentation is fun. For half of the 15th lecture, the mentor explained the intricacies of the internal classes to the student - he told everything wonderfully, right in all the details. Perfectly explains everything, on the fingers. Thanks again! I didn't notice how two hours flew by!

    Vitaly

    Quite a rich program, a lot of material. Especially for me, who was not previously familiar with programming, the lectures are very helpful in advancing.

    artinsky

    Now it is assumed (as I understand it) that training will take place from the first module to the last.
    Perhaps, in the future, consider the option of switching from an independent form of study with you to the current course? (with offset of the passed material according to the test results).
    Thank you.

    Alexey Kurenkov

    Tell me... with the tasks I plan to finish Java Multitrading + Java Collection on my own - all quests where there are tasks... So far, from the fully completed syntax and core...
    Is it possible to go on a course at Java University not from the beginning, not for a year, but for how long it takes without re-passing the first two courses or 4x?
    In general, you need to dive into Spring-Boot, but I understand that not everything can work out without the previous base ... I tried to read without tasks - somehow it’s hard to get into the terms and purposes of the bean, how to use them, how to configure.

    whipRip

    I wanted to clarify whether it is possible to enroll in a course not from the first lecture, but for example from 12 and how to do this if I have already bought a year of the usual premium?

    Nadezhda

    When is the next intake for Java University?
