Columbia University does not ask for work experience for most of the programs, particularly in
Engineering,
Computer Science,
Applied Science, where they prioritize academic excellence.
But, there are programs such as Business Analytics, Financial Engineering, or Management Science that mandate submission of relevant experience, internships, or research exposures. In addition, Columbia prefers students who have leadership potential, problem-solving ability, and real-world experiences.
