This hands-on course equips learners with the skills to design, construct, and deploy a web-based Email Marketing Tool using Java Servlets, HTML, CSS, JDBC, and the JavaMail API. Through a real-world project, students will begin by outlining the front-end layout and form structure, then proceed to build dynamic servlets that interact with a MySQL database to retrieve employee data. Learners will then develop and integrate both frontend and backend logic to send automated emails, concluding with a working, browser-accessible tool. Emphasis is placed on practical understanding, modular development, and full-stack integration in Java-based web applications.
