Start your career as a Software Engineer
Full-Time, Part-Time, and Self-Paced Options All Include:
We designed our Online Software Engineering Bootcamp course to give students the necessary expertise in both back-end and front-end programming to become full-stack web developers. All of our students, regardless of course pace, learn the same, rigorous curriculum, diving into programming with Ruby and JavaScript.

Course Pace Options
At Flatiron School, we know all students are different, so we offer three different, personalized course paces designed to give you the perfect balance of flexibility and structure to ensure your success.Paired with our proprietary online learning platform, Learn.co, and individualized support from an Educational Coach, all students have access to a personalized learning experience. Choose from three different program options, each tailored to today’s online learner.
Choose Which Course Pace Is Right for You
Graduate in 5 months with our fastest program pace: full-time. You will work through a minimum of 45-50 hours per week of coursework, and benefit from dedicated, full-time learning. This pacing option requires the most commitment, as you’ll be expected to attend live study groups, complete labs, and collaborate with others in your cohort throughout the day.
As a student, you’ll benefit from learning with a small, cohort and a dedicated Cohort Lead who teaches and mentors throughout the entire course schedule, at a 20:1 student:teacher ratio. Attend live study groups each week with your cohort lead.
Meet 1:1 for a full hour with your Cohort Lead weekly to get help breaking through tough technical concepts. Additionally, connect over 1:1 sessions with a dedicated Educational Coach every 2 weeks to review overall progress stay accountable for your progress. These sessions are in addition to real-time support from our Technical Coaches via our Ask A Question feature in Learn.co.
Graduate in 10 months at a pace that offers the same structure as our full-time option, but on a part-time schedule. You will work through a minimum of 25 hours per week of coursework and benefit from a structured schedule designed to keep them on track towards a career in code. While completing the program, students need to dedicate a part of their day-to-day in order to move through the coursework on schedule.
As a student, you will benefit from learning with a cohort of up to 40 peers, and a dedicated Cohort Lead who teaches and mentors throughout the entire program schedule. Students dedicate time to attend live study groups with their cohort lead every day, with options to fit their schedule.
Meet 1:1 once a month with an Educational Coach to help you stay accountable to your goals, anchor to your motivation, and review your overall progress. Partner with your Coach on addressing challenges and striking the right balance between your coursework and the rest of your life. These sessions are in addition to real-time support from our Technical Coaches via our Ask A Question feature.
Our self-paced program provides the same rigorous curriculum and mastery standards of our full-time and part-time paces, but at a 100% flexible, self-guided schedule. This program most benefits students with prior coding experience or unpredictable schedules by providing access for up to 15 months as they guide themselves through the coursework.
Includes five sessions with an Educational Coach to help you set and stay accountable to your goals, and make steady progress at a pace that is right for you. Students also get on-demand access to Technical Coaches through the Ask A Question feature in Learn.
Collaborate with fellow students and teachers, join live study groups, pair and chat with your peers, and access a living course that features thousands of updates a year to reflect current industry trends.

1,000 hours of industry-vetted curriculum
Flatiron School students develop coding mastery in JavaScript and Ruby, as well as study computer science to ensure they’re highly attractive job candidates upon graduation.
We designed our flagship online coding bootcamp and its curriculum to give students the necessary expertise in both back-end and front-end programming technologies to become hirable full-stack developers — able to land their first job in tech and leverage it into a lifelong career.
Section 1: HTML & CSS, OOP, Ruby, SQL, ORM
After diving into HTML5 & CSS, students get comfortable with object-oriented programming, learning to read websites with Ruby and save data to a database with SQL and Object Relational Mappers.
Sections 2 & 3: Sinatra, Rails
Students learn two key Ruby frameworks, first mastering the fundamentals of web programming with Sinatra before experiencing how quickly they can build incredible apps with Rails.
Section 4: JavaScript, React
Students gain a thorough understanding of JavaScript and functional programming — crucial for front-end devs — and start to build their own version of React before moving onto the framework itself.
Section 5: React, Redux, JSON
Students learn to build productive, scalable front-ends with React and Redux, creating slick, functional, reactive code with Redux as a state manager and Rails as the back-end JSON API.
