Welcome To UJUG Website
The Utah Java User Group is a non-profit organization primarily concerned with helping all of the Java developers in our community keep our skills sharp and knowledge current. There's no better place for Java developers in Utah to socialize, network, and learn about what's happening in the Java universe.
We meet the third Thursday of each month (except December).
Our meeting agenda includes two technical presentations, various break-out sessions, book giveaways,
and (perhaps the biggest draw) free food during the meeting. Bring your Java questions to the meeting
and you'll probably find an answer!
Visit our sponsors. We do not collect dues or fees, so without them we wouldn't have a group.
This includes our meeting place, food, books, drinks, our web site and everything else.
Please take the time to visit our sponsor's web sites and support them.
We're always looking to improve our group. Send your comments, suggestions and whatever to Chris Maki
