- Ozzie_osman 3y agoI know this has changed over time, but MIT's CS curriculum used to be really heavy on theory and light on industry-relevant practice (of course, students can choose a lot of their own courses past the core). For example, the intro course was taught in Scheme of all languages. Thanks for the tip about that Missing Semester course.
