Highlights

Computer Science students developed an app for Ford Motor Company. The team of students designed and built an app to assist electric vehicle owners in finding charging stations appropriate for their vehicle, using a programming language and development framework they had never encountered before, for a real client expecting real results. Impressive, right?

"Because classes can be difficult, professors are helpful with longer office hours and they’re willing to review your work. Computer Science is really important and very useful especially in such a technology-driven world.” Andrea Guillen will be graduating in 2024 with a dual degree in Computer Science and ITAM.
