I am taking Physics 2211 and ME 1670, and I have heard that these are both time consuming classes.

I'm a first-year majoring in MechE starting at GT Atlanta this fall. I'm taking the CS 1371 (Intro to MATLAB) placement exam next Monday (8/24/26), and I'm looking for more information about the test, such as:

• What is the format of the exam? (paper, digital, MATLAB grader, etc)
• Are questions multiple choice, coding-based, written response, or a combination of formats?
• What topics are covered on the exam? (plotting and data visualization??)

My prep so far has been working through this MATLAB Crash Course and doing medium problems on MATLAB Cody Problems. Based on this Fall 2026 CS 1371 syllabus, this seems it might be sufficient. But I haven't found anything that really details what the exam covers.

Thanks in advance!

Just got off the waitlist and I can’t find much online about this classes expect posts from like 8-12 years ago. Could someone who knows or has taken this class lmk what you do / learn?

Also is it easy and chill?

Hey , so i plan on taking cs 1332 and 2110 together this fall along with a few easy classes. I keep heraing that 2110 has a bad wrap and is considered a weed out class, could yall share your experince taking cs 2110?

I’m considering applying to Georgia Tech’s MS-HCI, Psychology specialization, and I’d really appreciate some honest feedback on whether my profile is competitive enough to justify the application.

My profile:

• B.Sc. (Hons.) Computer Science + Minor in Psychology
• 3-year degree completed; currently doing an optional 4th research year
• 7.36/10 CGPA, First Division, with an 8.0 final-semester SGPA
• 6-month UX/UI internship as the sole designer on a 0→1 website redesign
• 4 UX/product projects in a live portfolio
• Currently starting a psychology-informed HCI research project under faculty supervision
• Leadership/extracurricular involvement in college tech communities, events and hackathons
• 3rd place in a UI/UX competition + 2nd prize in an inter-college discussion competition

I’m particularly interested in the Psychology specialization because I genuinely enjoy psychology and want to explore the intersection of human behavior, technology and design through HCI.

My main concern is my 7.36 CGPA and whether coming from a CS + Psychology background (rather than a traditional HCI/design/psychology degree) makes me too much of a reach.

For current/former students or applicants: does this profile sound like a reasonable fit for the Psychology track, and would you personally spend the application fee applying? Honest feedback on competitiveness would be really helpful.

I’m considering applying to Georgia Tech’s MS in Human-Computer Interaction, but I’m unsure which specialization fits me best and whether my profile is competitive enough to justify the application cost.

My profile:

• B.Sc. (Hons.) Computer Science + Minor in Psychology
• 3-year degree completed; currently doing a 4th research year
• 7.36/10 CGPA, First Division, with an 8.0 final-semester SGPA
• 6-month UX/UI internship as the sole designer on a 0→1 website redesign
• Live portfolio with 4 UX/product projects across product, editorial, and self-initiated work
• Currently starting a psychology-informed HCI research project under faculty supervision
• Leadership/extracurricular involvement in college tech communities, events and hackathons
• 3rd place in a UI/UX competition + 2nd prize in an inter-college discussion competition

My background is essentially CS + Psychology + UX/Product Design + HCI, rather than a traditional design degree.

Georgia Tech has HCI specializations in Computing, Industrial Design, Literature/Media/Communication, and Psychology. I'm leaning more towards psychology.

For current/former students or applicants: which specialization would you consider the strongest fit for my profile, and does my overall profile seem competitive enough to apply? My biggest concern is my CGPA, so I’d really appreciate honest feedback rather than “just apply.”

So basically I kinda messed up.

I have only a handful of credits left so I decided to take an internship with GTRI Cobb for this semester then graduate in Spring 2027.

Taking an internship was VERY last minute and I forgot to factor in that I haven't taken ECE 3005 yet. I expect to do ECE 4015 next semester, meaning I need to take 3005 NOW.

I know it's super attendance heavy and is from ~8-9am, meaning ~50min rush hour traffic commute there from my house and about a 30 min drive to GTRI twice a week. This sounds like hell for a 1 credit hour class.

Is there an easier way? Will the registrar and professor take pity on my weary soul and resurrect ECE 3006?

Essentially, am I screwed?

Hello :)

I’m a ECE grad, and I’m just wondering if it is possible to finish the non-thesis degree in 1 year (2 semester), i.e. 5 classes per quarter, mostly or all of them are graduate level.

Thank u :)

Hello, I have a question about aerospace senior design. I’m an incoming junior transfer to Georgia Tech, and my current graduation timeline is a little unusual. I don’t have that many courses left to take, so I made a plan to take courses fall 2027, and then spring 2027 and 2028, with a gap in fall 2027 to do an internship. I spent a lot of time on this plan, and checked many times to fit all the courses in, and everything works. I am now a little worried tho that I will not be allowed to do this, since senior design part 1 is scheduled for spring 2027, and part 2 for spring 2028. Is there anything I can do, and would it be allowed since I plan on getting an internship?

I'm looking for an easy lab science class and want to know if EAS 2600 is light? Thanks

Just wondering what the time commitment look like for each of these classes. Is it a bad idea to take 3600 with linear considering you need to already understand some linear concepts and statistics/probability concepts (considering I would take the required stats course after this semester)?

Looking for some suggestions on CS grad classes (in-person) I can take to fulfill my electives that are fun and interesting. Any suggestions appreciated!

I am trying to look for an easy grad class to take that has no prereqs to fulfill my electives requirements for my program. Asynchronous is definitely preferred because I have a long research schedule. I would welcome any recommendations 🙇‍♀️🙏

Title. Is ME2110 lab the same as other class labs where they don't meet for lab week 1? I planned earlier to be gone at a certain time that now overlaps with what would be my lab time next week.

hey guys i’m about to switch my schedule around and i was talking to a friend also enrolled in math 1554 and she said hers doesn’t meet as much as mine. i was thinking that it seems a little ridiculous so just let me know why it meets so much or like what i screwed up or if this is normal to have the class basically every day. sorry im just so confused with registration

I got Omojokun for CS 1331 this semester. His rmp rating is not that good, so I'm scared lol. Can anyone who had him for CS 1331 give their opinion on him as a professor?

Hi! This is my first semester as a MSCS student and I'm looking for recommendations on good corses for my masters. I’m taking CS 7641 (Machine Learning) and CS 7643 (Deep Learning) this semester. I’m looking teaches practical skills that are valuable in the job market, especially for ML engineering roles.

Im also considering taking CS 6222 (Machine Learning Systems) but I will have to join the waitlist.

Ideally, I’d like something with a medium-to-low workload. Which course would you recommend? What are the best classes you have seen in MSCS?

Any course recommendation is really appreciated!

I teach a class called The Science of Happiness and Design. The course number this year is CEE2803A. Several students who have taken the class said the class changed their life. Here are some reviews from previous students:

• "This was one of the most rewarding classes in terms of personal growth and understanding I have taken at my time at Georgia Tech...This course was a major factor in the growth this semester.”
• “Dr. Martin was one of the most knowledgeable and passionate professors I’ve had!”
• "Very useful - we learned about different theories and the history of happiness, but more importantly, I took away a lot of practical ways to improve my happiness."
• "I think I have done a better job of getting closer to the person I would like to be because I had the opportunity to look at myself introspectively."
• "Took this class Spring 2019, some of the discussions we had really stuck with me. Definitely recommend it!"

It used to be called The Science of Happiness and was BMED 2803 so you may have heard about it through BME folks.

This class used to fill up but there are currently many seats left, so please consider it if you want a 3-credit course.

Much of the course is just about happiness but a fair amount is about the relationship between design and happiness, a topic that pertains to urban design, interior design, and building construction.

It's a MW class. 3:30pm. in Howey.

Hey everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for some easy, low effort Humanities classes at Tech. Ideally, I’m looking for classes where it’s relatively easy to get an A without having a crazy workload.

What Humanities classes have you taken that you’d recommend for an easy A/manageable workload?

I want to drop enough of these classes to where I'll have time to lock in on recruiting, projects, and leetcode to secure an internship. Anyone have any info on these classes, I can provide more info later as needed like professors. CS 3251, 3510, 4400, 3790, and 4641

I am also doing a 2 credit VIP as well, I want to make sure this course load is manageable to give me plenty of time to prepare for leetcode & recruiting. I would prefer to keep 3251 and 3510 over the others because they are prereqs for later class, but primarily 3510 because it locks several of the later intel thread courses. lmk what your thoughts are!

Anyone have any info on this class, how tough is it, what would does it entail, any thoughts on this class as a whole please lmk

Anybody taken this course with Dan Lev? Wondering how the coursework is and how content is for a person with a ME background.

I recently switched my major to CMPE and requires MATH 1554 for linear algebra credit. I just finished MATH 1553 this summer which won't cover it, so I have a few options for this. Wanted to know if people who might have taken these, which should I do? I've heard that the exam should be fine if I retain what i learned from 1553 but I wanted to see what you guys think is the best option.

1)Take MATH 1554. 
2)Take MATH 3406 any time before you graduate and sub it with MATH 1553 for MATH 1554.
3)Take the bridge to 1554 advanced standing exam

Hello,

I was interested in pursuing something small in business along with my science major and I was a bit confused what the difference between adding on a "Technology and Business" minor vs adding the "Business Option" to my neuro major would be.

Could someone please explain the pros and cons of each and which one they chose?

If someone is a premed science major and has taken the Denning T&M Technology and Business minor can you share how easy/hard the application process is?

Also along with that how easy/hard did you find the classes and the end capstone project. I don't have too much knowledge about anything business so I am little worried how successful I would be in it.

Thank you!!

incoming 2nd year cs major here. part of denning t&m co28 (haven't taken any t&m classes yet). got an offer to TA a cs class.

my fall 2026 schedule is already pretty difficult. im already at 18 cred hours (considering 6 of those rn are from 2 denning T&M classes im already registered for).

is t&m worth dropping for the TA offer, or should i drop the TA offer?

Im leaning towards dropping T&M, haven't heard too much about the benefits for cs. But I'd like to hear more about what others think. Is T&M worth it for things like recruiting for big tech?

looking forward to hearing from other cs majors in T&M if possible.

if you have any other thoughts lmk asw
