New Series – Questions and Answers for new Computer Science Students

ByWalter Wimberly

Are you thinking about, or currently in, a Computer Science (CS) program? Do you have questions about the field, and want to know what to expect, and often ask yourself, is this the right place for me? Well, those types of questions, and more will be answered here.

As an Assistant Professor and Under Grad student advisor to CS students, I’ve seen lots of these questions so I would like to answer these for you and others. If you have a question you’d like to answer, please feel free to drop it, or them if you have more than one, in the comment section below. (Either here or on the YouTube link above.)

I’m going to focus on CS students and studies specifically, although other STEM programs, and other fields might also find an interest in some of the questions as well.

I currently plan to answer a question every week, posting them on Monday’s at 9AM, so look for them then.
