Dev Studio

Build technology. Solve problems. Create something real.

A software development studio for motivated high school students.

Technology is not just something we consume, it is something we create.

At Peritia Dev Studio, students learn to think like software developers by designing, building, testing, and improving real applications. Through hands-on projects and personalized mentorship, students develop practical programming skills while creating a portfolio of work they can share with colleges, employers, and future collaborators.

What Students Will Learn

Students will develop skills in:

  • Computational thinking and problem solving
  • Programming fundamentals
  • Software design
  • Debugging and troubleshooting
  • User interface design
  • Application development
  • Version control and professional development practices
  • Using technology creatively to solve real problems

Students will use industry-inspired tools and workflows while building projects that reflect their own interests and ideas.

The Studio Experience

Dev Studio follows a workshop model:

Learn
Students explore new programming concepts through guided instruction and examples.

Build
Students apply those concepts by creating their own projects.

Refine
Students debug, improve, and iterate while learning that real development happens through revision.

Share
Students demonstrate their work, explain their decisions, and learn from one another.

Portfolio-Based Learning

Every student builds a collection of projects throughout the year.

Students may create:

  • Interactive applications
  • Websites
  • Games
  • Data-driven tools
  • AI-powered projects
  • Solutions to real-world problems

Over time, students develop a digital portfolio that demonstrates not just what they have learned, but what they can build.

Enrollment

Dev Studio is intentionally small to allow for meaningful mentorship and individualized support.

Dev Studio is designed as a progressive learning experience, with each project building upon the skills developed in previous sessions. Students enroll by term rather than on a month-to-month basis to allow for deeper learning, sustained growth, and meaningful portfolio development.
