Summer Courses | Pre-College Summer Intensive Series
As a part of the TXST Pre-College Summer Intensive Series, this high school coding course is designed for students with prior programming experience who want to deepen their software engineering skills.
In the intensive four week course, students apply professional coding workflows, use GitHub for version control, and integrate AI tools into substantial software projects. Participants complete a functional application and technical reflection demonstrating applied problem-solving and engineering practice.
The course emphasizes real-world coding standards, structured feedback, and meaningful portfolio development.
This program is a good match if your student is curious about careers in coding, software engineering, and AI deployment.
Prerequisite
Prior coding experience required (e.g., Python, Java, or similar). Students should be comfortable independently writing code.
Each student will complete the intensive with:
