Are you thinking about a career in tech?

You don’t need a background in tech to have a future in it. Technology thrives on new, diverse, and unexpected ideas—it needs new perspectives. The Align Master’s Program provides a pathway to a Master’s degree in computer science or data science for people with a Bachelor’s in a non-technical field.

Join us at our San Jose campus for a interactive event to explore what the industry has to offer.

We’ve all gotten suggestions from Netflix, Hulu, or Prime for the next great show to put in our queue. These recommendation systems have to be designed by people who can think like a computer — that’s us!

Break Into Tech — and learn what an algorithm is, how real-world data can be represented and how your point-of-view can change computer science or solve a real-world problem through data science. No prior experience is needed — just bring your enthusiasm!

Attend Break Into Tech for an opportunity to:

  • Experience computer and data science in action, and see how it applies to your everyday life.
  • Participate in a mini project where you can collaborate with others and discuss diverse perspectives.
  • Learn more about the Northeastern University Align program.
  • Please note, participants must hold a bachelor’s degree or be nearing college graduation to participate.

Registration is required for this event.
