Course Syllabus

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 2-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. CSE 390Z is not a part of CSE 311 and is a separate course. 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.

Email and Discussion:

Please send any e-mail about the course to cse390z-staff@cs.washington.edu. Emailing the entire course staff will allow you to get a response faster than if you email an individual staff member. You can also post questions on the course Ed Discussion Board.
