CodeJam - 2021

Awarded an NSF (National Science Foundation) grant in 2019, Las Positas college is researching the ways in which a Math-Jam like event named CodeJam can help our students become more successful in the area of Computer Science.  

An innovative 1 week, tuition-free bootcamp before the semester starts to prepare you for CS-1 and CS-7 with fun activities, a small community exploring tech and programming together, passionate instructors, and friendly support from trained peer teaching assistants.

Student Tesmtimonials!

If our CodeJams are successful, as we expect them to be, we may hold CodeJam events every January and August.
