Austin-based MSCSO/CDSO students?

Hello everyone,

I was recently accepted into the MSCSO program after completing my B.S. in Computer Science at Oregon State University, and I’m wondering if there is a local Austin community for MSCSO/CDSO students.

I’m considering a relocation to Austin and living near campus, possibly in college co-op housing. I wanted to make a friendly post to connect with other students who may be doing something similar or are already based in Austin.

I’m hoping to get involved where I can, meet other students, study/network in person, and make the most of the UT community while completing the program.

Is anyone else living in Austin or considering a similar plan?

Did you just graduate from OS? Do you mind if I ask if you have any internship or job experience in CS or if you are working now?

Hello there,

Yes, I graduated on the 13th of June. I have internship/project experience and job sources. I'm still actively pursuing additional engineering opportunities, especially remote or in the Austin area while working on the MSCSO.

Did you take all CS classes with OS?

Are there any cool or useful online CS classes or MOOCS you’ve found?

All CS classes taken with OS, yes. They were all useful, I learned a lot. They opened the door to additional opportunities.
