The FIU Computing Career-Prep Roadmap is a dynamic guide designed to help students at the Knight Foundation School of Computing and Information Sciences build career-ready skills from their very first year. It lays out a wide range of opportunities\u2014including hackathons like ShellHacks, internship programs like Sprinternship\u2122, peer-led workshops, research experiences, and specialized courses\u2014that students can explore based on their interests and goals. It\u2019s not a rigid checklist\u2014it\u2019s a flexible framework that supports students in forging their own path, gaining hands-on experience, and connecting with the tech community. By graduation, students are equipped not just with a degree, but with a portfolio of real-world experiences that make them stand out in the job market.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

“I wish I had this roadmap when I started\u2014so many opportunities like ShellHacks passed me by, simply because I didn\u2019t know about them. For new students, this guide is a game-changer: it helps you plug into FIU\u2019s tech community early, build real connections, and through its activities discover career paths you might not even know existed.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

“Knowing what to do in your field always seems like finding a treasure chest. As frequently as you hear about opportunities and programs when you’re in the field, new students do not know of ShellHacks or Sprinternship\u2122, making a roadmap like this vital to their success. Giving everyone just that bump needed to feel welcome, and like your actions are leading to improvement.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
