Presentation Transcript

  1. Robert Helms Lars Magnus Ericsson Professor and Dean Before joining UTD last year, Helms was president and chief executive officer of International SEMATECH (ISMT), the Austin, Texas-based consortium of semiconductor manufacturers whose member companies include AMD, Intel, IBM, Motorola and TI, representing 40 percent of the worldwide market share in computer chips. Prior to that, he was corporate vice president and director of silicon technology research at TI in Dallas.   Helms also served for 20 years as a professor at Stanford University, his alma mater, where he led research efforts in semiconductor processing and new materials, with a focus on environmentally benign manufacturing.

  11. Computer Science, Where to Start? • If you have not taken a CS Programming class in C++ or Java, you should begin with CS 1336 plus the CS 1136 lab. • If you have AP, IB, CLEP credit, or have taken CS classes at a Community College, the test doesn’t apply to you. • For all others, a self-assessment test is available for you to determine which Computer Science Programming class to take first.

  12. Computer Science Placement Test • You can take the placement test tomorrow. Just come with everyone else to register for your courses. • You can also take or retake the test online: go towww.ecs.utdallas.edu/ougaand click on thebutton labeled “Freshman Placement Test”

  13. CS 1336, CS 1337, CS 2336 • If you have credit for CS 1337 in C/C++, take CS 2336 in Java this semester. • For all other questions, talk to an advisor tomorrow. • CS 1337 and CS 2336 will be taught in Java.

  14. Waiting for AP scores? • If you are awaiting your AP test results in CS and/or Math, we cannot register you for classes in those areas until we know your scores. • Talk to an advisor tomorrow and arrange to FAX us your scores, together with a list of the courses (course numbers and scheduled meeting times) that you need to add at that time.
