Major: Computer Science

Favorite Class/Professor at TU
Even though my major's Computer Science, my favorite classes have been my Honors seminar classes, which have fostered deep conversations on language, philosophy and mythology.
What do you wish you would have known your first semester?
I wish I'd known about the option to test out of a couple classes, which would've sped up my curriculum. Just shows how important doing that kind of research is.
After graduation I want to …
Work in cybersecurity. I don't know where I'll go exactly, but I want to stay in the DC-MD-VA area.
What advice would you give a prospective student?
Start a spreadsheet, and figure out your 4-year curriculum beginning to end. It seems like a lot initially, but it gets easier and it will save you from a lot of pain in the future.
