Eh, as a Pitt graduate I can't really vouch for our CS degree. Most people I've talked to about it think it's actually getting worse recently, as we've hired more teaching professors who aren't good at teaching and not had too many upper-level electives. The program is also stuck in the Arts & Sciences school which puts a bit of a limit on how many CS classes you get to take. Where we really shine is biotechnology/medical devices. Sports have been good, but the Pirates won't be anything to watch now that McCutchen's gone. I love Pittsburgh and now is really a great time to invest in real estate here. Lots of places just outside downtown are really sprucing up like uptown, the North side, and Lawrenceville/Bloomfield.
