Why Learn Coding With Emory?

A career in software development provides ample opportunity to grow and develop professionally. As the field evolves, you can learn multiple disciplines or specialize in one that best suits your skills, preferences, or ideal work environment (i.e. remote or in-office).

Many web developers work remotely from anywhere in the world—whether for a company or on a freelance basis—allowing additional flexibility based on your day-to-day needs. Coding is also a foundational component of tech innovation across multiple industries, with applications spanning from healthcare technology to financial tools to entertainment. That means developers are always in-demand for a range of interesting projects.

Wherever your coding career takes you, you’ll have the skills to qualify for fulfilling positions every step of the way with the Emory Coding Bootcamp powered by Fullstack Academy.

The Demand for Web Developers

According to Lightcast™, the employment of software developers in Georgia is projected to grow 50.8% by 2032. Businesses actively seeking web development professionals span across all industries and sizes, including local high-tech employers like The Home Depot, Microsoft, and Macy’s, to name a few.

Hiring for roles like Back-End Engineer, Computer Programmer, Full-Stack Engineer, and Web Developer, these companies are rapidly growing and building out their software development teams. Emory Coding Bootcamp grads will be well equipped for these roles and many others.
