<p>Hi, my S has been accepted to WPI and plans to study CS along with taking business and entrepreneurial courses. I was hoping someone would have information regarding CS student placement for summer internships and full time job placement following graduation.<br>
Any information is greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>Here are grad placement stats and other links. I am unable to find something specific to internship placement, but I figure many of the same firms that recruit permanent positions are likely to recruit interns. You can always call the school too.</p>

<p>I am not a CS major but job placement is fine especially if you are good. Many go to Microsoft; not too many to Google or Facebook. In fact, I got a Software Engineering Internship at Amazon.com though my programming background is equivalent or better than most CS majors and I have taken relevant CS courses.</p>
