42 is an educational model that has grown into a global network of free schools for software development, where students learn by solving real problems together. There are no teachers, no lectures and no tuition fees.
You learn by doing: building software, giving and receiving peer feedback, and working in teams on projects that become more challenging as you progress. The curriculum is structured like a game, with levels and milestones that keep you moving forward.
With 3 campuses across Germany, you get the same learning philosophy and Core Curriculum wherever you study, while each location plugs you into its own local ecosystem, companies and opportunities. As part of the global 42 Network, 42 Germany follows a shared selection process and foundation program, so skills are comparable across all campuses.
