About:

CSE 390T is a seminar that covers critical differences between UW CSE life and other schools based on previous transfer students' experiences. Topics will include significant differences between lecture and homework styles at UW, academic planning (graduating on time, class planning), exploring grad school, and preparing for internships/industry. We will also cover fundamentals to be successful in CSE 311 and CSE 351 while juggling an exceptionally heavy course load.

Asking Questions & Getting Help:

We are here to help! Please don't hesitate to reach out! For private questions, e-mail the course instructor or post privately on the course Ed Discussion Board.
