As an institution, Massachusetts Institute of Technology has been striving for gender parity in science and technology for more than two decades. MIT’s female undergraduate population has risen to nearly 50 percent of the total enrollment, and such growth has been sustained across almost every department and school. Building on this achievement, MIT xPRO wants to increase diversity in software by minimizing barriers to entry.
A growing number of companies are hiring web developers, software engineers, and other technology workers who use technical skills to streamline their operations and leverage the power of technology within their organizations.
Their biggest challenge? Talent. MIT xPRO’s online learning program combines exclusive content from MIT’s world-renowned faculty with tailored support and hands-on learning activities.

This program is organized into three main modules using the MERN stack: Web Development, Front-End Development/React, and Back-End Development. Each module builds on the next, and is designed to prepare you to enter the job market as an entry-level full stack developer, or to specialize in one of these areas with further skill development.
You will develop foundational skills in web development using Javascript, HTML, and CSS. You’ll also create your own personal portfolio in GitHub, which you will add to as you progress through the program.
You will dive deep into front-end development using one of the most popular frameworks, React. You will write clean, concise code with Javascript ES6 and use these skills to work with web components in React. You will learn how to build React applications and how to test and deploy them.
You will work with MongoDB, ExpressJS, and NodeJS to become confident in the MERN stack. You will learn the essentials for working in the cloud, automated testing, and deployment for a solid foundation in DevOps.
