Course Overview

What You'll Learn

  • A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course.
  • By the end, you’ll be able to build reliable Rust programs using ownership and borrowing, structure applications with enums and traits, implement generics and lifetimes, and apply test-driven development for robust solutions.
  • As you progress, you’ll build increasingly complex programs using traits, generics, closures, and iterators, while learning to organize large projects with modules and external crates.

This course features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. Gain a strong foundation in Rust, a memory-safe systems programming language, through this comprehensive, project-based course. By the end, you’ll be able to build reliable Rust programs using ownership and borrowing, structure applications with enums and traits, implement generics and lifetimes, and apply test-driven development for robust solutions. The course begins with setting up your development environment and introduces you to Rust's syntax and basic constructs like variables, functions, control flow, and data types. You'll then explore Rust’s defining features—ownership, references, and lifetimes—reinforced through hands-on coding exercises and practical projects. As you progress, you’ll build increasingly complex programs using traits, generics, closures, and iterators, while learning to organize large projects with modules and external crates. Dedicated sections on testing, randomness, and error handling prepare you for real-world software challenges. This course is ideal for software developers, systems programmers, and tech enthusiasts looking to learn Rust. A basic programming background is recommended. The course is best suited for intermediate learners aiming to create efficient, safe, and scalable applications.
