    Great Project Based Learning Environment

    The bootcamp is definitely tough and fast pasted, but I think it is a good learning environment. The class is designed so that you learn the basics and then practice using more advanced activities, so a lot of the time is spent actually trying things out on your own. I really enjoy how collaborative my classmates and I have become, and the support I have gotten from my TAs and Instructor.

    UX/UI Bootcamp - Full Time

    I decided to pursue a career change to UX/UI to finally pursue a developing passion. I've never been a good student and my disabilities have sometimes made me feel like I couldn't get the education I wanted, something I worried about when starting the program. I switched from art to psychology in college, and after working for five years in the nonprofit mental health/disability accessibility space, I wanted to find a way to further advocate for this community while improving my knowledg...

     Due to the pandemic I had some doubts about how a virtual class would go,  as far as learning something I had no experience in.  Anthony and the instructional support team of Mark and Zach proved me wrong, as the classes were incredibly fun and collaborative. Anthony welcomes questions at any times and explains every line of code thoroughly step by step. He, Mark, and Zach go out of their way to answer any questions you may have and are always just a quick slack message away from helpin...

I knew, I learn best in person due to my disabilities which I told admissions.  Therefore after vetting several schools near me I decided on UC Irvine because it was the only school offering in person.  Well, that changed due to covid (No Fault of the school). How they handled it is completely their fault.  When I wanted to reschedule my session to the next semester to give myself time to prepare(Their response ...
