Advice For Anyone Considering Computer Science At Georgia Tech

Now that Georgia Tech has released their Regular Decision results, I decided to make a video talking about my experience as a Computer Science major at Georgia Tech: the good, the bad, and the unexpected.

This video is so insightful ✨ I’m currently working on my transfer application to GT and I’m hoping to get into the CS program as well. Your videos are so much helpful and informative to me 🌟Thank you for doing such a great job 🎊

Hey Kyle!

I have been admitted to GT for CS '21, and was about to finalise my decision (committing!)

Just wanted to know about the following in brief!

1. How big is a typical CS class size? and considering covid - has it been smaller than usual?

2. How is the overall student culture - in a sense that is it collaborative or cut-throat competitive? (also is it really as stressful as they say?)

3. How is the campus life recently? I love the urban aspect of it but wanted to know more about on-campus stuff for entertainment!

4. I'm planning to take up HCI with Intelligence - if I want to pick up a course which is not in my thread, will I be allowed to do so?

Lastly!
5. How hard/difficult is it to get an internship and maybe indulge in research?

Thank you so much for taking out time! Loved your videos about GT especially the drone shots :)

Hi Kyle, I've watched a lot of your videos and genuienly enjoyed them. I'm a high school student who's interested in majoring in computer science, but I don't have any experience for coding before. What programming language do you recommend for a beginner to learn first?

Can you do a little review about Game Development course? I have been making my video games in python and c++ and I would like to know if there are any similar courses available. In case there aren't any, can you recommend me any available courses that learn to build my own game engine, or make video games from scratch?

Would you say that someone who hasn’t done much computer science before college will not do well ?

[sreenivasbonam]

Hi Kyle! Thanks so much for this great video. I have few questions regarding how AP credits actually play out.. wondering if there's a way to PM you

[caseyshao]

Hi Kyle, thanks for the video! How is the class size for CS in GT?

[aaravvarma]

Which one is better, computer engineering or computer science? I heard they both pay well but which one is better for getting jobs afterwards? I heard in cs it’s tough to find jobs because it’s very competitive

Hi Kyle! Thanks for this vid! I'm considering Tech as I've been admitted for CO27 as an int'l student. Do you have any advice/tips for internationals? Do you think we'll fit in well? And would it be a problem if I'm not into any sports (I heard that the sport culture in Tech is pretty big)?

[minaximavani]

As mentioned in GATech's website there is no aid for International students, is there any way international students get aid or scholarship? I'm from India.

Hey, thanks for a very informative video, so I'm interested in pursuing entrepreneurship along with CS, what all can I do at GT? I was considering taking business as minor, how tough would that be?

[pranavraj]

For someone with a strong Data Science interest, what threads would you recommend? I'm thinking Intelligence and then either Modeling and Simulation/Info Interworks!

[NclTV]

I am interested in cyber security. Is there a program to Major in cyber security in gatech or do I have to do computer science? What other computer programs are offered ?

[catarinaabreu]

Hi! Are there ways to learn those other languages at GTech? Im afraid only learning python and java wont be enough to go to industry

[cellotron]

Which side of the campus did you live in and why? And how do you reccomend us Computer Scientists choose our housing?

[shujayethossain]
