Post after post on reddit, absolutely shitting on the cs program and the engineering department as a whole. I'm a student currently in cs looking to transfer to LB, but I refuse to let these reviews scare me away. One main complaint I come across has to do with the plagiarism scandal with Goldstein, which is justified and I can sympathize with students who were affected, although many students whine that the program doesn't prepare them for the industry and the content is outdated. From my experience, this is exactly what an average CS program entails, you learn the fundamentals and then a lot of theory / math, how you prepare for a job is outside of class.

I rounded up every review on rate my professor for the math, engineering, and cs classes, and to my surprise these ratings did NOT reflect students experiences portrayed through reddit. I found a wide range of professors some bad and a lot of them good, but in no way we're the majority lacking in positive reviews from current students.

I've come to a conclusion that the only people who take time to come on here and post about cs and how their advisors are no help, simply want to complain. I'm not invalidating your complaints, but personally I can't believe it is as atrocious as people make it out to be.
