I saw UVA offered Computer Science in two different schools, and I’m just wondering what’s the difference between them? What does CS in SAES teaches? how are the curriculum different? What kind of career or major anyone in CS in SAES pursue vs people in CS in School of Engineering? If I want to double major or switch into School of McIntire, then which CS should I be studying now? Thank you so much for your answer.
