  • You are allowed to miss a test/exam only under extraordinary circumstances.

  • In this course, all tests, the exam and the project are individual work. Plagiarism and cheating are not tolerable.

Useful Suggestions

  • When sending me emails, please indicate"CSE 3213" in the subject line (e.g., "CSE 3213 - Lecture notes unreadable"), or they may be deleted by mistake as spam. Include your name and student ID in the email.
  • For questions related to course materials, it is best to come to the office hours. Email may not be a good way to explain the materials.
  • This course is heavy! Read the lecture notes and the textbook before and again right after each lecture. Do the assignments.
