A one-credit (CR/NC) seminar series
Intent
The UW CSE Leadership Seminar Series, CSE 390L,
is a one-credit (CR/NC) seminar series,
primarily targeted at upper-division CSE
undergraduates, that brings CSE alumni and
friends to campus to describe how to be effective in a startup,
small company, large company, or less common environment. Our
guests will discuss topics such as:
- How do you position yourself to work on interesting projects?
- In a large company, what strategies can make you influential, vs. a
cog in a wheel?
- What is life like in a startup?
- If your goal is to start and grow your own company, where do you begin?
- What are the pros and cons of less common career options,
such as teaching high school computer science?
These should be great, informative, interactive sessions.
