Berkeley CS BA vs Cal Poly CS BS

[RML]

<p>

Uh, no, perhaps you should take a look at the data again (or perhaps the original question). The relevant data would be a separation between the various options within the EECS program. Some (actually most) EECS students specialize in CS, whereas others specialize in various aspects of EE. The former are therefore comparable to the BACS students, whereas the latter are not. Unfortunately, no salary breakdown exists to separate the students within the EECS program. All EECS students, regardless of specialty, are lumped into a single category.

I was actually saying to not mind the EECS when making a comparison to The Cal Poly CS program. Cal’s BACS data alone would already suggest that Cal’s CS program, regardless of its degree classification (BA or BS) is a more valuable qualification and can command more renumeration from the employers than the Cal Poly’s CS program. </p>

<p>The bottom-line here is that the data from both schools are incomplete so it’s hard to draw a conclusion based on that.</p>
