Upon successful completion of the course, the student should be able to:
- Understand the core concepts of Java object-oriented programming, including classes, inheritance, and interfaces.
- Apply and comprehend the advanced features of the Java language, such as annotations, streams, and lambdas.
- Create an application that uses a database.
- Design and implement unit testing.

The student has completed the course Programming 1 (SOF005AS2AE) or has equivalent knowledge and skills. The student is simultaneously taking the course Data Management and Databases (SOF001AS2AE) or has equivalent knowledge and skills. This course is a part of the Software Development study profile.

In this course, the basic knowledge of object-oriented programming with the Java programming language is deepened, and the skills for subsequent courses are provided. Topics covered in the course include:
