Class Schedule

Notes:

• Dates in the future are tentative and subject to slight changes (e.g., as guest lectures are scheduled). Please check back often.
• Research reading deadlines for CSE M 584 students are not listed on this calendar. You can find them here.
• I will try to post slides before class. If I don't, or if you'd just like to look ahead, last quarter's slides will likely be similar.
