Project-Based Computer Science Program

Our undergraduates learn computer science by doing projects with industry partners like you.

We focus on developing both technical expertise and professional competence. Our students graduate with excellent technical skills and a hands-on understanding of how to create successful outcomes with that knowledge in the real world.

"It's shocking how even the best students out of the best schools are not ready for work when we hire them. The reason I'm doing this project with you is that if I can demonstrate that you can really provide us with project-ready new hires, then people here will be all over it. And if, on top of that, you can supply us with a diverse set of qualified candidates, then everyone here is going to want to know you."
