How is the Undergrad Computer Science?

<p>Hello everyone!</p>

<p>I'm a transfer student and wanting to major in computer science. </p>

<p>How is the computer science department at URochester? Is the workload doable? Supportive vs. competitive environment? Girl vs. boy ratio? Overall feel of the department? </p>

<p>Not a comp sci major, but I’ve heard it’s either a hit or miss for some. There are some good classes and then some that seem completely unnecessary. Can’t give you a solid answer though. </p>

<p>I’ve held off answering in hopes someone with more direct knowledge would say. My only experience is through someone who recently graduated and who enjoyed it very much - and has a great job, as do classmates from the department - but we’ve never sat down and talked about the department, the classes, etc. </p>

<p>I’ve looked through the research and curriculum and I’d say it’s first rate though you should make sure that the some of the areas that the department has expertise in excite you. </p>

What is the average size of CS classes?
