This specialization features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress.
Dive into C# programming, focusing on console and Windows Forms applications, and learn how to use Entity Framework for database integration. Start by mastering C# syntax, control structures, object-oriented programming, and basic database handling, then progress to advanced topics such as inheritance, method overloading, and exception handling.
Hands-on projects include creating a car rental app and connecting it to SQL Server for data management. You’ll learn to manage user data, perform CRUD operations, implement form validation, and handle exceptions effectively.
This specialization is perfect for beginners or intermediate developers. No prior C# knowledge is required, though familiarity with basic programming concepts is helpful. By the end, you’ll be able to create functional C# applications, integrate databases, and manage user interactions effectively.
Applied Learning Project
In this specialization, learners will develop practical projects such as creating a car rental application using Windows Forms. You will explore the process of setting up forms, handling user input, performing validation, and integrating SQL Server for database management. These hands-on projects will give you the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned and build a fully functional application that manages data using CRUD operations. As you progress, you will also learn to use GitHub for version control, helping you manage and share your projects with ease.
