  • Class times and location: Tuesday & Thursday, 10:00am-11:30am in Lopata 202.
    • First class is on Tuesday August 25, 2015, and last class is on Thursday December 3, 2015.
  • Class grading: Review problems 5%; In class description of review problems 5%; Homeworks 15%, Quizzes 20%; Midterm 25%; Final 30%
  • Instructor: Roch Guerin, Bryan 509D, email: guerin@wustl.edu
    • Office hours: Monday 4:00-5:00pm & Wednesday 4:00-5:00pm
  • TAs and office hours:
    • TBD
  • Late policy: Homeworks and review problems are expected to be turned in at the start of class on their due date. There will be no exception and no partial credit. On an exceptional basis, if you are unable to make it to class, you can turn in your homework in the CSE department office (Bryan 509). Give your assignment to one of the department staff, and ask them to sign and timestamp it. The timestamp must precede the start time of the class.
  • Asking questions: You can obviously ask face-to-face questions during any of the office or studio hours, but the other and possibly better means to get your questions answered is to use the Piazza site setup for the course (you will need to register to be able to access it). The TA and I will monitor the site and do our best to answer questions in a timely manner. Posting questions on Piazza has the advantage that questions and answers are available to all students, and it is often the case that if you have a question, other students have a similar one. Because of that, neither the TA nor I will respond to email questions. So please use the Piazza site as much as you can and don't hesitate to ask as many questions as you need to; there is no such thing as a dumb question.
  • Midterm exam*: Tuesday October 13, 2015, in class.
  • Final exam*: Tuesday December 15, 2015, 6:00-8:00pm in TBD.
  • ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: Please make sure you are familiar with Washington University Academic Integrity Policy, as it will be strictly applied.


* EXCEPT FOR PROPERLY DOCUMENTED MEDICAL OR FAMILY EMERGENCY REASONS, THERE WILL BE NO MAKE-UP TIMES FOR EXAMS OR QUIZZES. YOU NEED TO ARRANGE OTHER ACTIVITIES SO AS TO AVOID CONFLICTS.
