Question Hows the Computer Science program here?

Is it still a shit show or has it improved?

It's good enough, the thing with CS is outcomes scale really hard with personal effort/skills/projects. If you just show up and pull an 88% in each class and do nothing else you'll have a hard time getting a job, but that would be the case at Berkeley too.

Not the best. And I agree. The job market is really tough.

It's good but you gotta put yourself out there and volunteer for research and stuff. Thats how I got an internship out of the gate. Basically don't expect stuff to be handed for free.

I graduated in 2020 with CS and it was shit. I would not be pursing CS major right now though, we're not hiring anybody and don't plan to.

I assume industry but if you do research you have a better shot.
