Computer Science

Shruti Jain came to UMass Lowell for its hands-on teaching approach. She’s gotten lots of opportunities to apply what she’s learning – as well as a coveted internship with Red Hat.

Once recruiters knew that I was a student at UMass Lowell, you could just see it in their faces – they were really interested in talking to me. People know what UMass Lowell is, and it’s all really positive.
