Show all testimonials

"Rocket's bootcamp was what I needed to kickstart my career as a software engineer. In addition to the technical training, what makes the course even more valuable is its focus on developing soft skills, such as working in teams, and presenting our work to people with varying technical backgrounds. A welcome surprise was the amount of guidance we received in our job hunts, even after graduation. I'm especially grateful for the mentorship and friendship of my instructors, peers and seniors, which made the journey all the more worth while."

Liz

Software Engineer

"After working through online courses independently, I realized that having a structured support environment was critical to building technical skills. Rocket was a great place to start - providing mentorship and guidance and also extending support with the daunting job search process. Most importantly, working through a demanding learning process with peers and supportive mentors was extremely encouraging. This gave me the confidence to do a career switch into a full-fledged software engineer - a role which I've found to be challenging but massively rewarding."

Grace

Software Engineer

"Having graduated from bootcamp and taking up a job as a software engineer, I have full confidence in Rocket's ability to help career switchers (like myself) make the transition. The syllabus remains focused on helping bootcampers gain employment as SWEs— from the rigorous algorithms practice (a crucial part of the SWE interview process) to having a comprehensive set of portfolio projects to show employers by the time bootcamp ends. I'm super impressed by the increasing quality and complexity of the projects that bootcampers are producing, it’s truly getting more impressive with each batch!"

Jeremy Lim

Software Engineer

"Like everyone else, I had initial doubts and worries about a ‘career-switch’, but I developed confidence through bootcamp's curriculum and advice from instructors with industry experience. I built a strong foundation and improved on learning new things fast. Building projects from ideation to deployment, both individually and as a group, was also very valuable. I have taken away much more than I expected - not only technical skills, but career advice and meaningful connections. I will definitely recommend Rocket's bootcamp to anyone who is keen in becoming a software engineer."

Kimmi Lee

Software Engineer

"Rocket Academy gave me a supportive and vibrant community of peers, staff, alumni who are really passionate about coding and invested in our collective success. Rocket’s curriculum is not only comprehensive but taught me the important skill of how to unblock myself which is fundamental for every software engineer. "

Hsiu Ping

Software Engineer

"I thoroughly enjoyed the curriculum. It was a great balance of challenge and fun, and my batch mates and I were always supported throughout the learning journey. Not only did I gain relevant technical knowledge and skills, the experience also taught me how to be independent and creative in learning and problem solving."

Ian Yip

Software Engineer

"Rocket was a really challenging but extremely rewarding learning experience. We were immersed in the frontend, backend, and cloud technologies that gave us a solid foundation for dreaming and building a range of projects that I'm still proud of up till today. The student community is very diverse and hardworking. It's always interesting to see the projects they come up with. The Rocket staff are very committed to giving us good exposure to the industry through frequent talks and Q&A sessions. They are good teachers and gave much needed support in job preparation and job hunting."

Jia En

Product Engineer

"Rocket's community was one of the main reasons for me to take the leap of faith to make a career switch with them instead of other bootcamp providers. The camaraderie and energy levels of my coursemates and students of the other batches really value-added to my learning and always gave me motivation to achieve more with each project, which ultimately helped me land my current job."

Dominique Yeo

Software Engineer

"A great bootcamp with very intelligent software engineers as teachers! The curriculum was well paced, making learning really fun and giving enough time for concepts to sink in. At the end of it, it provided me with the confidence and necessary skills to transition into a career as a developer, and more importantly, I left with the skills to teach myself new languages and the classical CS concepts."

Edward Porter

Software Engineer

"Joining Rocket's Bootcamp is one of the best learning experiences I've had. Although the journey was intense, the camaraderie of my fellow batchmates, instructors and alumni were amazing. The projects and assignments were challenging and I love that we could all do them in different levels. The Rocket network and support was really instrumental in my job search, from resume reviews (most comprehensive one I've ever had!), leetcode practice, job scrums and referrals. If you're thinking of making a career switch, definitely give Rocket's Bootcamp a shot! Life is too short to be stuck in a job you don't like."

Dewi

Frontend Web Developer

"Rocket Academy’s bootcamp equipped me with the tools and confidence I needed to make a career switch. It’s specialised and well-structured curriculum, dedicated instructors and network of like-minded individuals created an environment which allowed me to thrive and empowered me to start my career as a Software Engineer."

Learn More About Our UI / UX Design Course

What is UI / UX Design?

User Interface (UI) refers to the point of human-computer interaction and communication.

For a digital interface like a website or an application, UI design focuses on how a user interacts with the interface, using visual and audio elements such as type fonts, icons, buttons, animations and sounds.

In contrast, User Experience (UX) refers to the overall interaction experience that users have with the product itself. User experience design is the process used to create products that provide meaningful and intuitive digital experiences to users and covers all aspects including research, branding, design, usability, accessibility and function.

Both terms fall under the concept of human-computer interaction, which is the field of study focusing on the creation of computer technology and the interaction between users and all forms of IT design.

Is a UI / UX Design Course worth it?

Yes, taking a UI / UX Design Course is definitely worth it. A paid comprehensive course offers structured guidance, hands-on practice, expert feedback and in-depth knowledge, which can be hard to get on your own. Moreover, with courses you can earn certifications that boost your resume and make you more attractive to employers.

Our UI / UX Design Course is significantly more affordable and requires less time than more extensive courses conducted (which may involve several months to complete and obtain an Advanced Professional Certificate). It is ideal for learners who are serious about mastering UI / UX design quickly and effectively.

Our course has a comprehensive curriculum designed to cover real-world applications, is led by dedicated experts who can help answer any data-related questions you may have, and also gives you access to our Rocket Academy network and community.

Does UI / UX design require coding?

No coding skills are required!

Is UI / UX design in demand in Singapore? Is it a good career?

Demand for UI and UX design specialists has been growing rapidly in recent years. Research shows that job postings requesting user experience design skills across Singapore have grown 80% from 2020 to 2023.

Why is there an increased demand for skilled UI / UX designers? Engaging user experiences offers a competitive advantage for any company – they help increase customer satisfaction, brand loyalty and product adoption. Design-driven businesses have also been proven to significantly outperform their competitors. According to a 2019 report by InVision, 92% of companies that rank at the highest levels of design maturity can draw a straight line between the efforts of their design team and their company’s revenue.

For Singapore-based professionals, this means that gaining skills in UI design, UX design and design thinking can make you an indispensable asset to any company and expand your career opportunities — in Singapore and beyond.
