Santa Clara's computer science program?

<p>Hello!</p>

<p>I was wondering if anyone knew anything about Santa Clara's computer science program? I am considering this school because I know that it is literally in the middle of Silicon Valley where a lot of tech start ups are situated and thought it would be cool to go to a school near so many opportunities and innovative companies. However, I don't really know much about SC's CS program: is it decent, bad, good? How big is it? Is it selective? </p>

<p>If you could provide me with any info on their CS program and how good it is, that would be great! I'm looking at schools like University of Maryland, Purdue, Texas-Austin, UW, and University of Colorado Boulder. </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I’m also interested. Does someone know the graduation rate for the engineering and CS departments?</p>

<p>It is relatively small, selective and well thought of in the Silicon Valley.<br>
I don’t know the grad rate but, since it is a selective private, I suspect it is pretty high. </p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
