Areas of Focus

Many CSE courses have additional prerequisites that you must complete in order to enroll into.  Take one of the following areas of focus -- to study and learn a deeper meaning in one field. 

Some students may further their studies by working on small research projects with CSE faculty. Small research projects are accomplished by seeking out faculty after completing course work that has really caught a student's attention.  Research projects are completed by enrolling in a CSE 199 (Special Studies in CSE), a four-unit course.
