<p>I'm thinking about applying for Fall 2013 and I'm wondering how the computer science/computer engineering program is like. I haven't really heard much about UCSC's engineering dept and I've tried to do some research, but I'm afraid it might have been biased. So I wanted to ask here. </p>
<p>How hard is it to find an internship/job from UCSC's engineers/software engineers? Do they have good internship programs? Good alumni networks? Recognized nationally/internationally? </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Computer Science Game Design seems like a program you won’t find elsewhere.</p>
<p>Otherwise, UCSC engineering seems pretty young.</p>
<p>Thanks for the info!</p>
<p>finding internships is very easy provided that you are a good student. We are right next to silicon valley so there are literally thousands of jobs you can grab.</p>
<p>great! </p>
<p>whats the difference in the programs between UCSC, SJSU, and UCD since they’re all from the general area?</p>
<p>For comparing UCSC and SJSU, there are more engineering programs in SJSU but they are probably not as in-depth as the few engineering programs that exist in UCSC. And UC Davis is pretty far from the other colleges. I think provided you are a good student with 3.0+ college GPA no matter where you go among the three you will get good internship opportunities.</p>
<p>thanks for the info</p>
<p>UCD engineering is a little lackluster according to some of my friends that go there, SJSU is very nice though</p>
