[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My senior-to-be is interested in studying for CS. Are there big difference in training and employment opportunities between  UVA, UMD, GWU, GMU? Are the admission for CS and engineering similar? I mean is CS harder to get in than engineering? Thanks![/quote]

He should be looking at Virginia Tech for Computer Science.  Wouldn't consider any of the others.[/quote]

Thanks. Will definitely consider Tech too. Between CS and engineering, which one do you think is better? My DC could not decide between the two.[/quote]

CS is easier than engineering in courses work.  However, engineering has a higher starting salary than CS.  If you DC goes to Va Tech,  s/he can starts with engineering and transfer to CS if thing does not work out.[/quote]

Very true.

Most engineering disciplines require computer programming.  CS doesn't require engineering.

Consider majoring in computer engineering, which is basically a discipline of electrical engineering.[/quote]
