Interested in computer science, but don't have a technical background? No problem! Here's your opportunity to see first-hand what computer science is really all about. This hour and a half workshop will give you an understanding of the basics of computer science and see how your background in Humanities, Science, or the Arts can be combined with computer science to give you the ability to work at the juncture of both.  

The CCIS Align program is designed for people who don't have a technical background and are interested in combining their skills and undergraduate education with computer science.  The program provides bridge courses to give you the technical foundation you need to be successful in the MS in CS program.  Our students come from every possible background including English, Political Science, Biology, Economics, Journalism, Media Studies, Health Sciences, Nursing and more; most of whom have no prior coding or computer science.

Scholarships are available to minimize the risk of trying the program.

- The Align program is offered in Boston, Charlotte, Seattle and Silicon Valley - Students will gain 6-8 months of work experience in Northeastern's co-op program - Many of are offered jobs by their co-op employers
- All graduates of this program are employed making $100,000+ salaries
