A student of technology and coding may learn how to use logic and problem-solving skills. The coursework may include group projects, teacher-led assignments and computer lab work. Through a variety of classes, the student can learn how to use coding in everyday life and for a future career.

Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Master’s degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
