The Ohio State University Boot Camps

This Bootcamp is Very challenging. 

From an Army Veterans perspective, this is truly a "Bootcamp" for the mind and intellect.

The concepts that are learned in AI Development could Be applied to other echelons of Life. The "Random Forest," "Dimensionality," "Inertia," "Optimization.." and many others. To Me, that was the most interesting aspect of the Bootcamp, how I can apply these concepts to Life itself.

I learned how to work "with" various AI Systems, and developed a thorough understanding of what AI truly is.

Specifically, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Prophet. We learned many methodologies, starting from basic Computer Science, to Python, to Machine Learning, to AI Ethics, to Neural Networks, to Transformers, to Classification, to Image Processing and Computer Vision, to Natural Language Processing. VERY Intense.

We applied Our knowledge to various Projects in a Supportive and Collaborative Environment. The projects that We came up with are VERY interesting. With subjects from Stock Market prediction to Celestial Object image classification. Very Cool.

It was a Great Experience.

The Staff are Very Supportive. The Instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, and Career Services are very engaging.


If You are interested in AI, Programming, Computer Science, or other Applied Sciences, I highly recommend this Program.

It is Very Complex, and Very Difficult, especially for a working Professional, or someone with limited coding experience. You have every means of succeeding though, and They Help You through every step of the process. 

Again, highly recommend if You are interested in Life Learning and Technology.

My data analytics journey began with a newfound passion for data analysis during my physics coursework. Driven by my love for computers and technology, and the need to support my growing family with a baby on the way, I took a leap of faith and enrolled in the Ohio State University's 24-week data analysis boot camp. From the very beginning, I was immersed in learning advanced Excel, VBA, Python, and SQL, and I knew I was in for an exciting ride. 

The boot camp presented challenges, but the rewards were even greater. With an amazing instructional team and round-the-clock support, including tutoring and career services, I felt supported in my pursuit of success. Just four months into the program, I received two job offers - one as a coding instructor for children and the other as a data annotation specialist in an AI startup. Both roles enriched my skills and knowledge.

Shortly after completing the boot camp, I secured a position as a data analyst for a large city. I am now moving into my first apartment with my fiancé and son, and I am incredibly grateful for the hands-on and rewarding educational experience I received. I owe my success to the wonderful instructors and team members who guided me every step of the way. 

I joined as a beginner  in technology to OSU's  Data Analytics bootcamp.I was skeptical in the beginning because it was my first boot camp and I didn't have any previous  background knowledge. But ,if you follow the correct instructions and put your maximum effort ,you can make it. That is the how  the course structure was created ,Modules are very detailed, easy to understand and your TA s will be always  there to clear any doubts or for any kind of help; there I was lucky. Of course your classmates ,are  another helping hand , I  enjoyed learning with them . Though I  faced many challenges and issues, at the end I felt accomplished  when I solve it. I used many resources to be successful along with resources the course provided. 

I entered this boot camp with zero coding experience! My reason for choosing a boot camp is I was stuck working jobs that had no future for a career. I soon realized I wanted more than just a 9-5 that got me by paycheck to paycheck. I did a few semesters of college online but with limited options in what I could major in, it fell through quickly leaving me wondering what career could I even make out of those classes. Then when I was 21 years old,  I found The Ohio State Boot Camps page and I could not be more satisfied with an experience. I am writing this review now with little less than a month left in the course. I can honestly say it has been the hardest thing I have ever done education wise but it has also been the most rewarding. The fulltime course definitely requires the recommended 20-25 hours a week of study time outside the classroom that they recommend. It sounds intimidating at first but with the resources provided such as tutoring and endless amounts of online documentation to read through it is achievable! I was overwhelmed with the pace at first but as we got deeper into the course my understanding of the languages progressed and so did my code. I never thought in a million years I would be able to build web applications from the ground up on my own! My instructor Rachel is exceptional, she is clear and concise with every language and tool she teaches while knowing how to put it into a real world perspective for me and the other students. On top of being great at teaching Rachel is always available to answer any questions before and after class. Even If it was 1 A.M and Rachel was not available for questions there is still 24/7 support provided from real world developers! The coursework is current with any job in the web development field you are interested in obtaining after the boot camp. Furthermore, there is a mass amount of career support provided to you throughout the boot camp whether it is a networking seminar, resume building event, interview prep, and so much more! Also, even after the boot camp ends you are not left on your own! You are provided with 1 0n 1 career coaching and even more courses with languages not covered in the boot camp to help you on your journey. I am truly satisfied with every hour and dollar spent on this course. If you are really motivated to change careers or start one this is the course I would recommend. Hats off to Ohio State and Trilogy for providing students with such a powerful experience. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for me and all my classmates. I am in the same class as Michael Carmody so if you need more reassurance before joining read his review as well!

I am currently taking a full stack development program, through an online program, hosted by The Ohio State University. I worked in hospitality for 10 years and felt that I needed to make a change. This program offers everything necessary to do this. It has a curriculum that is all encompassing with instructors that are passionate about what they do. They take feedback seriously and have made adjustments accordingly. It is truly wonderful to participate in a program where the focus is more on comprehension and less on grades. Furthermore, the career development and engagement programs that they have in place are fundamental resources for anyone looking to make a change. They offer numerous seminars throughout the semester and provide multiple resources to connect with companies as well as how to develop yourself for interviews including your resume and cover letter. I am so thankful I found this program and it has been exactly what I needed. It is important that you are able to give your full attention to the program, if you choose to do the full time route, as it will require 20 to 25 hours outside of class if you are going to retain and build upon the class content and ultimately develop the necessary skills in order to succeed in a work setting. Rachel is my particular instructor and she is extremely passionate about teaching and helping others gain full comprehension of code, why it exists, and how to utilize it. 

This bootcamp has taught me multiple skills in a short span of time. Instructor was extremely knowledgeable and provided a lot of real time examples for various cybersecurity topics. My cohort was also very good , there was great participation and many meaningful discussions. I thoroughly enjoyed all the assignments and project work. Teaching assistants were extremely helpful and they made sure help was immediately provided whenever I had any issue or was stuck on any assignments. Tutoring was available to help with topics which I needed extra help with. Student Success Manager was also very helpful and made sure I got the help I needed to complete the course successfully. Overall very satisfied with this bootcamp.

I really enjoyed The Ohio State University's Cybersecurity Bootcamp.
My classmates and I learned a lot and worked well together via zoom .
Our Instructor William Triest was very knowledgeable.  Our TAs Matt Krause; Addie Green and Dan Carlson were always available when we needed help before; during  or after class.   It was extremely helpful to have a weekly option to utilize a tutor. My Tutor Austin Barrett was very patient and helpful to me while I was working my way through the Bootcamp.  I would recommend this bootcamp to anyone that wants to embark on a new career path or add to their IT Skills.

Trilogy Education Services is paying the university for the name only, the company operates in many other states under the same idea of so called college universities. (ie not really The Ohio State University)  You pay $11,500 to teach yourself coding. When I asked for help online I was given links to free resources on google and 40min long YouTube video. The class is mainly application of coding you somehow are suppose to learn with no course material or exercises to do.  You get very basic exercises to do in class and then your homework is material you have no experience in so, you're basically googling how to do it, why pay 11,000 to teach yourself. Instructor Slavic and Tim were only good part about the whole experience. The course is very poor quality,  Jill Pettis (student accounts) failed to explain, we as students would owe the remaining balance even if we withdraw, after add/drop date. It was only explained we would not get refund for first payment and deposit we put down. Please do yourself a favor and DO NOT ATTEND this bootcamp. There is a reason the alumni of this program are pretty non-existent. My class size started out as 60+ then by the first week dropped to only 18, should of been a RED FLAG!
