Computer Science

I’m interested in majoring in Computer Science. Is it difficult to get into the program at BC? What is the quality of the program. Are internships available? Thanks for any info!

I can’t speak to competitiveness for admission for BC, but the program is solid. It’s not a top CS program, but it’s plenty sufficient in offerings.

Internships in tech in Boston are plentiful - the school you go to doesn’t matter there. I can’t think of more than maybe a few places that have better opportunities than Boston for internships with such a large base of college students as well as being a tech hub.

If you’re comparing around the area, BC has probably one of the weaker CS departments IMO. Tufts, Northeastern, and BU offer better programs I think overall and are more known for CS. Of course MIT/Harvard as well, but we all know those ones I’m assuming.
