A lot of you are tying to get into a number of our courses this quarter where space is tight. We will try to help. At the same time, however, many of you are missing out on very important project and capstone courses that are some of the truly unique opportunities offered by this department, not duplicated anywhere else. Though they may not be required of you if you are a CS major, they are just as valuable for Computer Science majors as for Computer Engineering majors.
- These are the kinds of interdisciplinary and team-oriented experiences that employers are looking for.
- They are chances to work on cutting edge topics that go well beyond “textbook” content.
- They are fun!
Courses this quarter include: 428, 441, 477, and both offerings of 481.
Especially in times of tight budgets, our ability to offer these courses in the future depends on continued student interest.
