<p>I've had the same computer for a while now and my parents did not want me to buy a new one until I knew for sure where I was going and what type of computer I need. So, I finally decided on Binghamton. What type of computer/ programs works best for a student going into engineering? Mac or PC?</p>
<p>PC for sure. customization options are through the roof with specs for a good deal.
Programs depend on the engineering course
Type of computer is really your choice depending on your budget. Minimum for a computer in my opinion is 4gb of ram with a decent processor chip.
You can additionally just buy barebone kits for your computer and assemble it yourself. It’s cheaper and gives a good performance.</p>
<p>Thanks so much!</p>
