“The accelerated computer science program is perfect for recent grads or people looking for a career change,” said Brent Krmpotich, Director of Student Recruitment. “Computer science graduates are in demand across all sectors of the economy. Data shows that computer science graduates have lower unemployment rates and higher earnings than most university and college graduates.”
