Coding School / Backend Development

Backend Engineering Bootcamp

The Backend Engineering course is designed to equip learners with the technical knowledge and practical skills required to build the server-side components that power modern web applications. While front-end development focuses on what users see and interact with, backend engineering is responsible for the logic, data management, authentication, and system processes that operate behind the scenes to ensure applications function reliably and efficiently.

About Curriculum Outcome

About the course

Backend development focuses on the server-side of web applications—everything users don’t see but that powers how applications function. It involves building and maintaining the logic, databases, servers, and APIs that ensure applications run efficiently and securely.

This course introduces learners to backend development using C# and ASP.NET Core, one of the most powerful and enterprise-ready frameworks in modern software development. Originally made open source in 2016, .NET supports cross-platform development, enabling applications to run on Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android.

With its strong backing from Microsoft, .NET provides a stable, reliable, and scalable environment for building high-performance applications. This makes it a preferred choice for businesses worldwide. Throughout this 16-week program, participants will progress from foundational programming concepts in C# to advanced backend development topics such as database integration, APIs, and application deployment.

You will learn how to:

Build and maintain web applications and services.
Write clean, efficient, and scalable code.
Design and manage databases.
Perform testing and quality assurance.
Build production-ready applications.
