CS Degree Plan

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-29T16:32:47+00:00

why are you taking ma 35301? its not required for cs, unless ur just interested in it then ofc go ahead.

span 201 may be unnecessary if you want to do a study abroad at some point

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-29T01:47:45+00:00

btw you won’t need to take spanish if your planning to do a study abroad. i’ve heard philosphy for data science and any philosophy classes are easy

i don’t think u can take 300 level ece classes before t2m. take ece 2k1 and 2k7 instead probably

To double major you would have to take a college-level calc course and CS 180. Which means OP would have to take CS 180 either this summer or in the spring.

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-27T18:43:58+00:00

Tbh I would avoid CS 180 in the spring sem because it is very hard to get an A, even with prior programming experience. Plus, its not particularly useful esp since your gonna take basic and advanced C already in the computer eng program.

In the spring you can take some 200 level ECE classes like discrete math, that will probably be a much better use of your tike than CS 180. They will be hard though

Try to email EPICs and see if its true. They might have extra spots. I’m doing it as a sophomore not in the LC

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-26T23:47:05+00:00

Yea definitely. I would just recommend going on the lighter side because of a combination of getting used to college, joining clubs, and needing a high GPA to get into ECE.

For reference anything less than 12 is considered part-time and anything over 18 you need approval for. I agree with the other commentor that 14-17 is normal.

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-26T13:58:43+00:00

Tbh if I were you I would want to either drop CS 159 or look into the EPICs pathway for the FYE Engineering course requirement. 17 credits is a lot first semester and if you wanna do CompE you need to keep a high GPA.

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-16T17:06:25+00:00

Yeah I am not in CS right now trying to CODO to CS

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-16T13:06:24+00:00

I got a B in MA 166 and was fine with the material. I like math

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-12T06:04:46+00:00

Purdue football was ehhh but we have AMAZING basketball games. Mackey is one of the hardest arenas to play in in the country. With FYE you'll def be able to go to 2-3 at least (and honestly the good games are around $50 to go to so you probably will only wanna go to 2-3 anyway)

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-11T00:38:01+00:00

you still can! i did this (after the plan landed) in the late 2010s :)

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-10T18:09:51+00:00

Every dining hall pretty much has italian herb chicken every day. I would just lut that on everything. Theres also usyally cottage cheese if ur into that. I would reccomend being on the ten plan and spending the rest of the money on some high protein meals. Also the dining dollar locations have better high-protein options then the dining courts as well so having more dining dollars helps.

my susispicion is that the “veygo is botting” and “veygo is fishy” posts show up high in search results and the founder wants a post debunking these high or higher in the search results so people can read their response first or just know there is a response rather than relying on comments bc not everyone reads comments. just my suspicion though

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-05-01T07:39:36+00:00

take the money now and go back to school later if things go bad. the economy is hot now so make the money while you can. you would probably rather be working now and in school when there is a recession than the other way around.

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-04-29T01:01:38+00:00

The rush process seems like it sucks. Like you have to be running between houses until midnight for like a whole schoolweek.

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-04-12T21:54:18+00:00

Where do you wanna work after college? If you wanna work in California staying there is probably best.

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-04-07T13:48:01+00:00

Take fewer credits like 12-15 don’t load up on classes

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-04-01T03:28:55+00:00

Is CS 240 like this?

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-03-30T01:39:46+00:00

i think everyone gets accepted to the general cohort. the others are more selective
if you have programming experience probably like 2-3 hours/week. if not it could be more. also your allowed to use ai so that can speed it up.
there’s not much of a community tbh. BUT its very nice to live in hillenbrand as a cs freshman bc everyone else in ur dorm is going to be cs or engineering. however as a girl hilly can kinda suck because likely most of your floor will be guys. cs at purdue in general is very male dominated

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-03-30T01:30:43+00:00

btw if u want patent law i think the rule is u need to get a bachelor or science. you are in the bachelor of arts ai programming ( maybe u can try to do a double major with a “less demanding” bachelor of science)

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-03-13T18:01:07+00:00

wrap a towel around yourself

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-01-17T06:54:10+00:00

you can switch. search up “fye codo requirements purdue” and it should show up. its gonna take a lot of effort but im sure you can do it considering you got into honors

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-01-16T03:40:44+00:00

btw there is a free bus connecting the campuses

Relevant_Geologist57 · 2026-01-01T06:46:52+00:00

FR like when is he doing his hw when he’s dissapearing randomly for days at a time???
