The current direction in software development clearly favors server-side programming - often using the Java language. Still, many courses today may not yet be updated to keep pace with this trend. This paper explores the design of a new course, Server-Side Java Programming, which we will be offering at our university. The course will be the third in a three-course sequence that we intend to pilot test during spring 2002 with full implementation beginning in that fall. We believe this paper will be of interest to educators, who, much like ourselves, are only now beginning to appreciate this new direction in application software development.

Keywords: Java, server, programming, architecture
