About: CSE 390Z is a workshop designed to provide academic support to students enrolled concurrently CSE 311. 311 concepts are at the core of computer science, but they are different from what many students have experienced in CS courses before.

During each 1.5-hour workshop section for CSE 390Z, students will reinforce concepts through collaborative problem solving, practice study skills and effective learning habits, and build community for peer support. All students enrolled in CSE 311 are welcome to register for this class.

If you are interested in an add code, please fill out a form here. If you cannot access the form, please let the staff know.

Course policies: Please let us know if you need any help whatsoever. Collaborate with other students, come to class, and turn in assignments on time. Reminder that the collaboration policies for 311 can be found here. Read the full syllabus here.
