I’m in the Fall term of my sophomore year but since I don’t have 30 credits I’m still a freshman and can’t enroll into the classes I’ve already built a schedule for. Will they be filled by next week? Has anyone dealt with this?

What is the UX design program like?

2 Upvotes

Hello! I am interested in pursuing UX design with my current major in psychology. I want to switch to the UX program, but my estimated graduation time would be 2031, and I'm unsure about staying in academia for that long as I have already been in school for 3 years. My alternative is getting my foundations of research through psychology, and using the several electives to earn tech certificates and a minor in computer science. Although, I'm leaning towards taking the plunge because I've read that UX UNT is the #2 program in UX design after UT Austin, I'd love to say that I have an art degree, and I want to best set myself up for success in the field. However, as im sure you know, a degree in UX isnt necessary for landing a job in UX. Also, truthfully, im not too confident in my self-discipline to teach myself in time to apply for internships. Are there any recent grads from the UX program or current students that could tell me what its like? I've heard from one source that they don't really teach figma, but that's what the industry is looking for. Are the courses more theory or is it applied? Would I enjoy UX more learning it on my own, or is the program satisfactory? Would you say there is time to make personal projects or case studies in this major? Do they prepare you to build a portfolio throughout the major or is it only a last year capstone? Pretty much will I be teaching myself outside of class more than I'm learning in class? And how artsy is the major, really? Would you say the program truly is the blend of psychology, tech, and design? Or you could tell me simply how you like the UX program. Sorry for all the questions. There's just a million different ways to get into this field and im struggling to pick one 💀

writing marking as AI

2 Upvotes

i seem to always have this issue when i’m writing short answer questions or essays. nowadays i always make sure to run my work through an ai checker just to make sure my work isn’t going to flag for ai for my professor. i don’t ever use ai when i am writing, but it seems like more and more of my work is getting flagged at higher percentages. i’m not really sure what to do in this situation. i don’t want to run the risk of getting in trouble for something i didn’t do, but it seems to me i’ve been spending more time and effort having to practically dumb down how i write to appease an ai detector. i was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue, or if anyone has any tips on how to handle it? i don’t want to always have to resort to making my work look less thought out than it is.

CS at Frisco vs Discovery Park – are the classes/professors good at Frisco?

3 Upvotes

Hi! I'm a future CS transfer student, and I'm trying to decide between taking most of my classes at Frisco or at Discovery Park. I don't have any transportation, so I'd prefer to take my classes in Frisco if possible.

  1. Does Frisco offer enough CSCE classes, or did you end up having to go to Discovery Park a lot?
  2. Do the professors at Frisco have a good reputation? If you have any you'd recommend, please let me know.
  3. Has anyone done Capstone at Frisco (the Spring→Fall sequence)? How was it?
  4. Is it hard to get a seat in 3444 and 3600 at either campus?

Thanks!

Transferring into CS – which CSCE classes/professors should I take (or avoid)?

3 Upvotes

Hi! I'm transferring into UNT's BS Computer Science (planning for Fall 2027 or Spring 2028). Most of my lower-level CS will transfer, so I'll be taking mostly upper-level CSCE classes.

I'd love to hear your honest opinions on these classes:

- CSCE 3600 Systems Programming (I heard it has a high DFW rate)

- CSCE 3444 Software Engineering

- CSCE 4110 Algorithms

- CSCE 4350 Database Systems

- CSCE 3550 Cybersecurity

- CSCE 2120 Vectors and Matrices / 2130 Analysis and Modeling

- EENG 2710 Digital Logic

- Capstone (4901/4902)

For each one:

1. How hard is it, and how much work is it per week?

2. Which professors do you recommend or avoid?

3. Any tips for passing 3600?

4. Which classes should NOT be taken in the same semester?

Also, any CS electives you'd recommend (Core Focus / Breadth Focus)?

Thanks a lot!

Forensic Science Program Acceptance Acknowledgement?

1 Upvotes

Hey guys :) I put in my application for the forensics program a while back and the application deadline recently closed (10/16). I was wondering if anyone knew when/how they would contact me about being admitted/denied? I've been checking my email every day but I'm not even sure if that's where I would receive news about it. It's kinda stressing me out with classes filling up quickly. I know it probably takes a while to get through all the applications, but any info/experience on this matter would be greatly appreciated. :)
