CompSci at Fordham

<p>My S received a very attractive package from FCRH and we are seriously considering the school. While we have family that has attended FC and all have had a very positive experience, no one we know studied computer science. I went to Manhattan College for EE and liked it lot. However, the campus at RH and the package we received make FCRH very appealing. Any thoughts or comments on the CompSci program? Another interesting feature is the 3/2 with Columbia...but thats another story. </p>

<p>Where do we get additional info on the CompSci program, besides they web site of course. Thank you!</p>

<p>I am sure the Comp Sci program is very small and that may be a good or bad thing, it depends I guess…Just wanted to get some real world info from students.</p>

<p>Not sure if you are still here but CS at FCRH is not bad-- much better than LC.</p>

<p>LC Student here- my (limited) experience with the computer science department has generally been unpleasant and the comp sci teachers here are not so stellar. IMO, I think you should avoid fordham for computer science unless your S plans on transferring out via the 3-2 engineering program.</p>

<p>Thanks Joshy6442…My son decided to go for Computer Engineering after all and is enrolled in Manhattan College…which is where I went so good choice ;-)</p>

<p>Good luck to your S in manhattan college. Computer science can be very demanding and if your S has no prior experience in computer science, teachers are everything. Tell your S to check out ratemyprofessor.com before enrolling in classes- I wish I did last semester! It would’ve saved me a lot of headache haha.</p>
