Computer Science Programs in Virginia

Computer Science is the study of software, algorithms, and computing systems. It is consistently among the highest-earning bachelor majors one year out, though figures swing with the tech hiring cycle and the share of graduates who land product-company roles.

Programs below are ranked only when a college figure rests on at least 100 graduates. Programs on 30 to 99 graduates carry a small-program flag and are listed, not ranked. Anything smaller shows the national median for the major, badged as such.
