HyperionDev, a leading provider of online tech education, is pleased to partner with the University of Chicago to launch a diverse portfolio of cutting-edge online bootcamps.
Rooted in the University of Chicago’s 135-year legacy of academic excellence and its founding mission of lifelong learning, this partnership reinforces the institution’s ongoing commitment to expanding access to rigorous, high-quality education beyond the traditional classroom.
This collaboration will provide learners with the opportunity to gain high-demand skills with bootcamps in Web Development, Software Engineering, Data Science, Cybersecurity, Digital Marketing, Leadership and Management, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) Engineering.
The launch comes at a time when the skills needed to succeed in the workplace are evolving faster than ever, creating a critical need for upskilling and lifelong learning to keep up. According to the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report 2025, tech-focused skills, like AI, cybersecurity, and big data, are leading the way as must-have skills shaping the workforce of the future.
This strategic partnership is expanding access to relevant, future-focused bootcamps designed to help students advance in their current roles or transition into new industry-leading fields. Each bootcamp has a practical, hands-on approach to learning and offers students personalised support and one-on-one mentorship from industry experts.
“We are proud to collaborate with the University of Chicago, an institution known for its innovation and dedication to empowering learners, to make high-quality education accessible to everyone,” said Riaz Moola, CEO of HyperionDev. “This partnership aligns with HyperionDev’s mission to prepare learners for the future of work, equipping them with the tools needed to succeed in an increasingly tech-driven world. Our bootcamps have also enabled career transitions into tech for students into high-impact tech roles at leading global companies”
Each bootcamp is delivered online, with full or part-time options, and allows students to learn from any location at any time. With a strong emphasis on industry-relevant training and expert mentorship, students will complete the program ready to apply their skills in real-world settings.
After completing their bootcamp, students can access comprehensive career services, including interview preparation, portfolio development and exclusive access to HyperionDev’s select hiring partners. These services help students stand out from the crowd in an increasingly competitive job market and grab the attention of top employers.
HyperionDev’s world-class career services have helped 88% of graduates secure a job offer within 6 months of completing their bootcamp. Even more participants have gone on to work for industry-leading global employers such as Google, Vodafone, Barclays, Natwest, British Airways, NHS, NationalGrid, Accenture, and Deloitte—demonstrating both the strong demand for tech talent and the effectiveness of these bootcamps in preparing participants to thrive in real-world roles.
“The University of Chicago has a strong tradition and ethos of coupling theory and practice, not only to ground students in fundamentals but also to help them understand how to apply those fundamentals to emerging world problems,” said Nick Feamster, PhD, Neubauer Professor, Department of Computer Science, University of Chicago. “The world is moving fast, and these bootcamps will help professionals stay on top of the skills needed to operate in today’s society.”
Enrollment is now open, and the next cohort will begin on 5 May 2025. Prospective students can learn more and apply on the UChicago Bootcamp Website.
