Read how USF’s small classes and close knit network of professors in Computer Science helped Alyssa Pohahau ’14 launch herself in the job market quickly as a software engineer at Square after graduation. The USF profile article highlights how Alyssa beat the odds as a woman of color pursuing a male-dominated field and why she liked studying at USF. There is also a short video in which Alyssa discusses her love for studying computer science and how she ‘lost track of time’ doing her assignments for her first Computer Science I class because she was enjoying herself so much.
