    So just a quick few questions about this course:

    1.) Will it teach me how to develop apps?
    2.) Will it teach me how to develop games?

    I put this course as my number one CAO choice but after reading about it recently It does not mention anything about games or apps and that kind of worries me because there two of the main reasons I signed up for this course :(

    From the website "Internet Applications Development, Mobile Programming" Both of those subjects sound like they cover app development. If it's the course I'm thinking of then app development is definitely covered.

    App development is covered in second year of the course.

    In terms of game development it depends on what your definition is. If you are wondering about developing console or 3D games then the answer is no. The course covers development of software programs using a range of programming languages but using these languages it is possible to makes games and projects in first year cover making games like Rock Paper Scissors vs the computer and card games.
