About Us

Satırbaşı is a coding bootcamp founded in Eskişehir in 2019 by three software developers aiming to “close the gap between university and industry”. Our first cohort had 16 people; today we work with about 260 participants a year on our 900 m² campus in Tepebaşı and in live online classes. We have produced more than 1,140 graduates so far.

How we teach

Our programmes are project-based. Each day starts with a short topic session and most of the day is spent writing code in teams. Participants work with Git as in a real software team, run two-week sprints and have every pull request reviewed by a mentor. By the end, every participant leaves with at least 12 projects on GitHub and a graduation project live in production.

• At most 24 participants per class and one mentor for every 8
• Our mentors are working developers with at least 4 years’ industry experience
• The curriculum is updated every cohort with feedback from our employer advisory board
• We teach AI-assisted coding tools together with principles of responsible use

Who joins?

About half our participants are adults switching to software from another career, a third are new graduates and the rest are developers looking to upskill. A university degree is not required: an intro interview and a short coding task are enough.

Certificate

Participants who complete a programme with the required attendance and projects receive a Satırbaşı certificate of completion with a verifiable number. Our certificate is not an official diploma; the real value is the portfolio employers can review and the Demo Day presentation.
