This course is unlike any other CSE course
in the Allen School. Students will have the
opportunity of learning how computers actually work and how
software runs on them. Additionally, a large goal of the
course is helping students succeed as a university
student. Students will be asked to engage in new techniques
and approaches to studying and learning at the university.
The course is designed to foster academic success at the
University of Washington and the Allen School. Registration
is for Allen School undergraduates and by add-code only; if
interested, please speak to an Allen School academic advisor.
See the syllabus for more information.
This is a relatively new course — first offering was Spring 2020!
