<p>Columbia, Princeton, Cornell, these schools should be feeling very nervous about their CS departments reputation in the tri-state area, with respect to affordability, and quality bang-for-the-buck. Stony Brook’s tuition is only 3K(instate) and their department is incredibly, and I mean incredibly strong. Cognizant, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Northropp Grumman and many, many companies recruit on campus for CS students. To an extent where there is regularly an info session where they are requesting students to apply!</p>
<p>Stony Brook will now have nearly 5 buildings devoted to Computer Science. CEWIT, present CS building, and now this new gigantic building, Institute for Advanced Computational Science, a new high performance computing center for supercomputing, and last but not least Brookhaven National Laboratory!</p>
