I think it would be interesting and useful for /u/harvardorcmu to post this same question in a Harvard forum and see what those students/alum say. 15-210 - introduction to algorithms, parallelism is emphasized.
Since this thread is young enough that the OP is still an applicant, it's worth letting him/her know that the internal transfer requirements have changed (as in the changes have become public within the last few days). I went to CMU but if I had to choose again, I'd pick Harvard. When I started taking CS courses, I had taken AP CS in high school so I started with 122 and I loved it. TLDR: If you want to learn more go to CMU, but if you want prestige, go to Harvard, go to harvard, i heard they are hiring some top notch professors to upgrade their cs program, also name/people youll meet is better you wont regret it. Congratulations! I'm taking Intro to ECE and 15112 this semester, and I've noticed that I enjoy 112 a lot more. CMU has upwards of 60 faculty in SCS alone, and has even more resources in Machine Learning, Robotics, Language Technologies Institute, and so on. If applying to CMU and not accepted into SCS, what is the easiest way to transfer internally into SCS? Join.

source: I added a second degree in CS after studying music. Don't come here intending to transfer without a backup plan on how to be happy on the school you were admitted to. If he were applying 4-8 years from now, it may be a different story. Cookies help us deliver our Services. Non-SCS students: CMU students in majors outside of SCS can apply for transfer into the Computer Science major or a dual degree in Computer Science using this online form.

Transfer applicants are only considered for one college or program within Carnegie Mellon. https://www.csd.cs.cmu.edu/content/guidelines-transfer-dual-degree-minor-and-double-major-cs.

Transfer requirements are here: https://www.csd.cs.cmu.edu/content/guidelines-transfer-dual-degree-minor-and-double-major-cs. They're both great schools and I'm sure you can have an excellent and enriching experience at either one. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast.

By the time this student attends/graduates, Harvard will still be playing catch-up. I would take CMU in that case, probably. For the record, I was an ECE freshman that transferred into CS. CMU is hard and it's possible that they'll reject your transfer. I'm genuinely curious. A community for [Carnegie Mellon University](http://www.cmu.edu) students and alumni. In Firadin's words, I was trying to "backdoor" into CS from day one. Boston is a better city than Pittsburgh, too. Actually though, CMU CS is like, #1 in the world for a reason (Harvard barely has a CS program...). @OP, look at previous posts here that discuss CMU SCS in more detail (there's a recent one), but the depth and rigor of courses that are offered here are unmatched by other schools, and recruiters know that. (If you're looking for Central Michigan University, try /r/centralmich).
I would take CMU in that case, probably. CMU CS is objectively better in terms of the quality of the coursework as well as the professors and the connections with CS community at large.
Online.
3 years ... (If you're looking for Central Michigan University, try /r/centralmich). However, 18100 is not representative of ECE in general. Computer science curriculum: free for all, designed for you.
Just for clarification, the criteria is having done well in 21-127 (and maybe calculus courses) and a 3.5 average in at least three courses from: 15-122 - introduction to C, fairly easy A if you put the time in, 15-150 - introduction to functional programming, very easy A if you put the time in, especially if you take it over the summer, 15-213 - introduction to systems programming, may be challenging if you aren't already familiar with low level concepts and debugging tools, but an A is still possible if you put the time in (the book is a phenomenal resource that you'll come back to after the class, make sure to read it!).
Spring transfers must have completed a semester of college before the application deadline in order to apply for admission. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. if you are familiar with a good portion of the mathematical concepts, you should do very well. Don't come to CMU unless you would be happy receiving a degree from the department that you were actually admitted to.
It’s been almost ten years since I graduated, and I can honestly say it was way harder than any job I’ve had since then.

Our programs train the next generation of innovators to solve real-world problems and improve the way people live and work. As a commenter pointed out, Harvard is doubling its staff (from ~12 to ~24 profs) thanks to a donation from Steve Ballmer.
When I started taking CS courses, I had taken AP CS in high school so I started with 122 and I loved it. 6.6k. Transfer Applicant Instructions. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. I transferred into SCS from CIT. CMU still gets upset that I want a programming job. If you are SUPER into CS, then this is an odd choice to give us - the typical decision point is between top CS schools - like MIT vs. CMU not Harvard vs CMU. You now must take 15-122, 15-150, 15-210, 15-213, 15-251, and 21-127, and earn a QPA of at least 3.65 in those six courses.
That seems to be the requirement to add a dual degree in CS according to this: http://www.csd.cs.cmu.edu/education/bscs/transfer.html. And no additional transfers will be allowed if the class is full (though I'm guessing that that's always been true). For reference, here are the formal requirements: "Students may submit a request no earlier than the end of the freshman year and once they have successfully completed 21-127, 15-122, 15-150, 15-210, 15-213, and 15-251. We have a breadth only matched by MIT/Stanford/Berkeley. Apparently I am supposed to overcome the stress of not getting a job before they can help me find a job. Created Sep 27, 2009.

Carnegie Mellon’s School of Computer Science is widely recognized as one of the first and best computer science programs in the world.
Not to say other CS courses aren't programming-intensive, but you'll need to handle theory as well (and be good enough to get a 3.6). it might help to have taken 15-251 first, though the pace of 210 is a bit more manageable. 15-251 - discrete math for cs students.
To say it’s tough would be an understatement. Cookies help us deliver our Services. It is definitely worth it to take as many courses as you can. The transfer requirements into CS in previous years was 2 A's and a B between 15-122, 15-150, and 15-213.
It's sort of supposed to be a weeder class, since it displays some of the most uninteresting concepts in the major (in my opinion). You are going to undergrad.
Another burst is coming. Companies recruit like crazy here, especially in CS and ECE, for a reason.
The name is certainly not better for CS (CMU is like, #1 recruited for companies like Google and Facebook). Press J to jump to the feed. Also, would there be any course/GPA requirements to do so?
Nobody had any clue how to get a job.
CMU CS Academy is an online, graphics-based computer science curriculum taught in Python provided by Carnegie Mellon University. However, I have a few friends in Harvard CS, and can safely say that CMU has an objectively better CS program unless you're interested exclusively in theory, in which case Harvard can be competitive. Does that just make you a viable candidate for transferring in or does it give you a sure shot?
Thanks!! Cookies help us deliver our Services. Just to confirm what people are saying with my experience, you have to get at least 2 As and a B in 15-122, 15-150, and then one of {15-213, 15-251, 15-210}. In fact, I don't enjoy Intro to ECE at all.
The overlap between ECE and CS is really large, trust me.
If you are a CS major but are not a die-hard geek about CS and looking for a bit more of a well-rounded education, I'd definitely choose Harvard.
You aren't going to grad school. In addition to our admission requirements, please keep in mind the following:. 45. And in undergrad education, no ranking in the world has CMU anywhere near Harvard. The 200-level courses tend to be better examples, as Intro ECE is really just about you learning enough to not be lost when doing real ECE work. However, if you go to Harvard, you'll probably be happier and have more diverse connections. It is definitely worth it to take as many courses as you can. if you enjoyed 15-150, you'll probably have a blast in this course. I would take 15-150 and 15-251 before you're settled on CS as a major.
