About this Event
CS50x Miami is a course that teaches you how to design and implement solutions to problems. But more than that, it teaches you how to think more critically, more methodically and more algorithmically. It is an adaptation of Harvard University’s CS50 course that provides an introduction to the intellectual enterprises of computer science, and the art of programming, for Miami Dade College students and the South Florida community.
So you may be wondering what do students do after completing the program? Join us for a great panel discussion with three CS50x graduates who will share their experience in the course and how it helped them advance in their careers.

About CS50x Miami
Miami Dade College partnered with Harvard University’s CS50 team to bring their Introduction to the intellectual enterprises of computer science and the art of programming to South Florida. We have adapted the course for the Idea Center at Miami Dade College and the technology markets in the Miami Metropolitan area. In this program you will learn:
Learn Programming
Learn the fundamentals of programming in C and apply that knowledge in Python, JavaScript, and more. Topics include abstraction, algorithms, data structures, encapsulation, resource management, security, software engineering, and web development.
Learn to Think Algorithmically
Algorithms exist everywhere in the world. They pretty much run our lives. Learn how these algorithms work and apply them to many aspects of your life.
Have Fun!
Partake in a unique course culture revolving around social interaction, candy, pizza, photo booths, and more!
