[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So...in the AI era, getting a CS degree from a SLAC with humanities courses and "soft skills" might be better than the tech schools. Go figure.🙂[/quote] I am sure certain top SLACs have decent-to-strong CS programs...but I doubt getting a CS degree from say Gettysburg is going to do much for you. You do know that all top schools have humanities and other liberal arts requirements for CS majors, right? [/quote] My DC from an average school doing CS got a 200K+ offer from a top tech firm, plus sign in bonus, performance bonus, and RSUs. It's not exactly Gettysburg college, but a known school for DCUM that most here wouldn't rate as capable of producing top jobs. He didn't do soft skills classes, except what he must for general credits, but he took many advanced CS and hard Math classes, then worked his butt off on learning what these top employers need. He also was a TJ capable student, if that matters, another thing DCUM likes to put down. Why I mention it is because the capability probably matters and you can still work your way through even you don't go to a top ranked school.[/quote]
