Computer Science/ Engineering with art/design emphasis- target schools for the A- student

<p>Few CS majors have uploaded apps to the Apple store. Nor for the tech savvy is it all that impressive for those that have. The CS curriculum at colleges that offer it has many prerequisites. Shortcuts, such as taking the minimum number of courses to complete the major are unwise. The “solution” to your post is straightforward. Your daughter, if indeed she’s interested, should major in CS and take design/art courses as electives. Most large universities have competent CS programs – certainly state flagships, and most of the top 50 USNews rated universities. They also would have competent design courses. She can get a sense of the opportunities to mix CS and design through class projects and internships.</p>
