Additional Information

My CSU Experience

I recently accepted a position that I would have never thought possible. Throughout the interview process I was told that I would not have been considered were it not for my (computer science) degree. I could not be happier with the instructors, instruction and friendships I formed while at CSU and would highly recommend the program.
