Re: [hackmosaic] Best HBCU's for Computer Science?

Hey there.

My kids are involved with the A Better Chance program (focused on college-bound programs for kids of color):  http://abetterchance.org 

I passed your question along to one of the senior program directors there, and they responded with:

The top three programs for computer science among the HBCUs are thought to be North Carolina A&T State University, Bowie State University and Florida A&M University.  To be honest, I can’t vouch for the overall quality of either of those three programs, but that’s what I was able to glean from some respected rankings online with regard to programs to consider.
 
I help students with this kind of research regularly and this would not have been top of mind for me either if that offers any consolation.

Hello Fellow Hackers 

I'm mentoring a young man who aspires to study computer science and pursue a career in quantitative finance.

He's currently applying to colleges and is interested in HBCUs (as well as PWIs).  

Which HBCU has the best computer science program? Has anyone here graduated from or recruited from an HBCU computer science program that they'd recommend.
