Computer Science
The Computer Science program helped pave the way to my current role as a Software Engineer/Enterprise Architect intern for VSP Global. The program focuses on all of the industry-expected knowledge points in Java, such as object-oriented programming, algorithms and software development process. Dr. Reinhart’s project in our Software Engineering class allowed me to relate many of the interview questions to a physical project that I used to provide examples on my knowledge and skills.

I had an internship with Teamwork Athletic in San Marcos, California. It was everything and more that an undergraduate student could wish for. They gave me the opportunity to create and conceptualize my own designs. This internship did everything to complement my studies here at Cal Lutheran.

I took two full semesters before declaring, and I am still on track to graduate in four years with a double major. It is totally manageable and possible! It helps that Cal Lutheran has so many class options and is not overly impacted like some programs at other schools.
