The Apple Developer Academy @BINUS is Asia’s first ever initiative to empower Indonesia’s economy by creating world-class developers for the world’s most innovative and vibrant app ecosystem. The 9-month academy program aims to attract students 18+ across Indonesia from a wide range of backgrounds. Our curriculum is designed to support not only those with coding or computer science experience but also those interested in areas such as design and business. It challenges students to apply themselves in real-world issues via application design, development, and startup creation. It also emphasizes creativity and collaboration which are skills needed for success. This program will be delivered in both Bahasa Indonesia and English.

The Foundation
The iOS Foundation course aims to inspire our student to become world-class developers by introducing learners to app development on the iOS platform. This 4-week program currently takes place on BINUS UNIVERSITY’s Alam Sutera campus, one of the best private universities in Indonesia. The foundation is open to BINUS active students from any course and any semester.
Classes are led by Apple-trained instructors and focus on fundamentals of coding with Swift – Apple’s powerful and intuitive programming language created to build apps for iOS. They take place weekly, and students will learn a wide range of topics from technical-oriented OOP, Swift syntax, UI kit, to other skill sets including CBL, UI/UX, value proposition and rapid prototyping. Whoever wants to join the academy can start building their skills by attending the foundation.
The Apple Developer Academy @BINUS vision is aligned with BINA NUSANTARA (BINUS) dream and sense of determination. BINUS continuously strives to give the best contributions for the nation which is not only realized by building schools and university, but also by enriching the students with in and out-of-class learning program and encourage them to apply their knowledge to the community for a better quality of life.
The Academy classes are all based on Challenge Based Learning (CBL) which is a multidisciplinary approach to teaching and learning. Using CBL our teachers encourage students to leverage the technology they use in their daily lives to solve real-world problems. CBL is collaborative and hands-on methodology. It asks students to work with other students, their teachers, and experts in their communities and around the world to develop deeper knowledge of the subjects they are studying, accept and solve challenges, take action, share their experience, and enter into a global discussion about important issues.
The curriculum leverages CBL to include the following topics:
