Computer Science

How is the computer science programs at these schools?

Marquette University
University of South Carolina Columbia
Furman University
University of Minnesota Twin Cities
Syracuse University
University at Buffalo
Iowa State
UMASS Amherst

Of these, UMass Amherst stands out significantly as one of the better programs. Probably followed a ways back by the rest of the pack led by Syracuse and UM-TC.

You’d do well at any of these in the end - CS is much more about what you do than where your degree is from, but the program quality will allow you to do more.
