UC Davis Teaches iPhone App Development, Too
Posted in: Apple, education, iPhone, Phones, Today's Chili
UC Davis (my alma mater) is getting into iPhone apps, too. The university is offering its first iPhone app development class, similar to the course taught by Stanford.
Granted, the Davis course is taught by professor Ken Joy, and Stanford’s is led by Apple employees. Still, it’s great to see more computer science programs teaching code for newer platforms. Hopefully we’ll hear about a slew of Android development courses as well.
“Nothing is more relevant than the iPhone or iPod Touch right now,” Joy told CNET’s Erica Ogg.
Universities offering iPhone development classes are signed up with iPhone University, an Apple program that hands out the iPhone software development kit to students for free. More details on the UC Davis iPhone development course are available at CNET, which first reported this story.
Go, Aggies!
