> He's a freshman at Kennesaw State right now, but he really struggles with the idea of taking two years of classes that he has very little interest in.

If it is just the idea of having to take a load of liberal arts classes that perturbs your son and not the low level courses like chip design, logic, algorithms and data structures, calc and stats, one alternative to consider is to study internationally. English universities, for example, offer a bachelors in computer science in three years. Unlike a "8- to 16-week full-day immersive courses that focus solely on technology" they have a curriculum almost exactly the same a US computer science course minus the 3 English classes, 3 history and political sciences classes, 2 economic courses and an art course that a college like Kennesaw has a graduation requirement: Kennesaw State Curriculum (http://ccse.kennesaw.edu/cs/docs/BSCS_2016-2017.docx). To compare look at the University of Bristol's Curriculum:[https://www.bris.ac.uk/unit-programme-catalogue/RouteStructu...]

I know this is not an option for everybody - many people need to stay close to home for personal or financial reasons, but is definitely something to look into. With regards to finances, English university for international students even with 1 year less of study still cost a lot. However, I am pretty sure that the course structure is similar at most European universities some of witch offer really low fees to international students.

There is a lot of talk in this form about lack of information regarding student debt in this form. I will be starting an undergrad degree next year and am wondering what are some good resources that provide information about the dynamics of student loans?

Thanks, that is good to know. I am doing a whole degree there. I am not sure how recruiting works at Google but when you say Google do you mean London or US based offices? Obviously I don't know what I will want to do in 4 years but I anticipate moving back to the US after I graduate.

I am from the United States, next year I am probably going to attend the the University of Edinburgh for The Computer Science and Artificial intelligence course. Something I have been wondering is how US employers view the university, particularly with the somewhat strange (at least in the US) course title - "Artificial intelligence?"

Is IndexDB slow at querying a database or is it just a pain to implement?

Does anyone have a link to the official government release of this information. I have been searching for sometime but only can find secondary news cites (and we all know they have there ways of messing with the facts).

Seems reminiscent to the dot com bubble where just adding "e-" to your companies name could increase your market cap.

Thanks so much for the advice. I will be sure to contact you if I have any more questions:)
