<p>^ Just because the average Joe doesn’t think of Duke as being a great school for computer science doesn’t mean that it isn’t. It also doesn’t mean that it’s easy to get into. Duke is significantly more selective that CMU for example. Pratt is the most improved engineering school in America and Duke CS graduates have led divisions at companies like Microsoft, Apple, Cisco and IBM. </p>
