Hello!

We (JAYroop and AYesh) are two Computer Science and Engineering Masters's students working with other Master's and Ph.D. candidates at Carnegie Mellon University, American University of Sharjah, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and the University of Massachusetts Amherst to bring accessible and engaging programming content to all on SkillShare!

Our snazzy title is "Odysy Academy" and in essence, it is a community-driven educational initiative. We are all about the odyssey, so to speak, and we are proponents of journeys and challenges. Our mascot is Glaux, the namesake owl of Athena, the goddess of wisdom! He will also be part of our courses as comic relief, a distractive educator, and an attention-grabbing side-kick.

Here, multi-year university degrees in STEM are condensed into a span of a few months and delivered through engaging visuals, hands-on projects, and story-based code challenges.

Speed-run through the first few years of a major of your choice, and see if a field is a right fit for you!

To make things crystal clear, this is the structure of serialized course content designed by us on Skillshare:

Beautifully designed visuals explaining basics and tech interview questions!
Engaging and detailed coding tutorials with animated storylines!
Practical hands-on projects with a real-world perspective!

We envision our Skillshare courses as your first step, your rite of passage, and your training field before you actually do decide to pursue a college major in a field of your choice. To know if you like doing something and see if you're good at it, you should be able to do it without fear of failure, and not worry about extensive college tuition fees.

We also wish our courses to be a supplementary source to support those who believe in self-learning and upskilling at any stage in their academic or career journey.
