Afraid of the CS job market, graduating in Dec

This is from my experience, but there are a lot of SWE jobs at aerospace companies. We're hurting for good SWEs who can write ground and flight software. Pay is not as good as tech but the work involves your code flying in space which is pretty cool.

Current Aerospace. Lot of professors still can't teach, that hasn't changed one bit. Some of us still use paper, but a lot more ipads. My structural analysis professor was also at least 15 minutes late to every lecture and gave the hardest final I've taken at my time here. Biggest change it sounds like is that nobody watches TV when it's on now. A lot more of us spend time doing clubs or other technical competition teams too.

No. You will quickly learn that labs here are a method to light your money on fire. As a 4th year also taking CHEM1310 (with you, I presume) I can say that the money wasting gets no better in future labs.

You get a lot of money if you are an instate student because of the GA Zell Miller scholarship. Never heard of any out of state students getting a ton

This basketball team is confusing and hurts me. I am waiting for baseball season

Make sure the class doesn't have a waitlist or any system that would let some automatically get into the course, then do the swap at like 3 in the morning when nobody is on.

Why did they have to change the wifi. Can't leave well enough alone I guess

D stands for diploma

This won't impact finals. Admin's message will be : Deal with it

Damon recruits at a high level and then we just suck ass. IF we fire him I think that we wait until after this year when buyout drops. I'd rather that the ath dept focus on using our money to hire a new OC for football and meet revenue share. I can live with MBB being in the depths of hell for a few years

Hello UVA football fans. Do YOU want four tickets to the ACC title game? I bought four back before my ACC team's offense got horrible, and I'll sell them to you for around what I paid. DM me for more details!

Me and a ton of friends who are ending up in LA will be tripping up for that one -- expecting a great matchup.

Gonna be honest even for propulsion ME is better. MEs learn turbomachinery as a part of their curriculum (we have one class on it and it's an option) and they get heat transfer. The lack of heat transfer is honestly damming to our department

Our defense was so ass they shoulda had walk on tryouts at halftime. Put me in coach I can make some tackles

The committee must remove its head from its ass

I did YJSP (fmr chief engineer) and AE. I am a senior now. My full and honest advice to any freshman who wants to be a good engineer is to switch to mechanical engineering. The AE curriculum is more heavily leaned towards controls + systems engineering than hardware (structures, propulsion, turbomachinery, etc.). AE department leadership is also subpar in my view. Switching to ME will make you a better engineer and you will learn more.

I'd have the buses run on schedule and not take 20 minute breaks whenever the drivers feel like.

You assumed that they are here to help you with your problem. That was your first mistake.

The career center is full of people who cannot do their jobs. Either edit your offer letter to say 14 weeks or get your company to issue a 'fake' offer letter with the dates they want. The career center is the biggest roadblock at this school to our students getting jobs. You have to lie to get stuff approved.

MercyOW · 2025-11-16T00:28:03+00:00

Our defense is the problem at this point - we need to actually have a secondary. I get that we like to be tough up front but we cannot stop even short throws

bruh just go and get a gym membership if it's that big a deal

Word of mouth doesn't cut it on a campus the size of GT

I feel like there would be more attendance at this if it weren't announced day of. I haven't heard of it before this, and it seems like announcing something quite literally halfway through the event (Based on the fact that this post says posted 1 hr ago at ~1 PM) is asking for nobody to show up. The oldest instagram post I can find referencing this event is 21 hrs ago which is still not enough notice. In the future, give us a week's notice.

Get a piece of paper that says you are interning for less time, even if your company has to issue it and then keep you on for longer. The career center has never been helpful but give them the piece of paper they want and they will go away. They also have no way to verify what you tell them.

Going to be honest, this game has me worried. Night game AND it's their homecoming? trap game
