Software engineering

Grading is generally generous; multiple students mention getting A's without much additional effort beyond attending group meetings.

Workload can be heavy during projects, especially in the initial weeks. Students spend a significant amount of time on documentation and coding within teams.

Assessment includes two midterms, a final exam covering knowledge taught in class, quizzes, and a group project involving building websites using Django.

Forming a good team is crucial, as group dynamics significantly impact grades. Additionally, attending early lectures can provide valuable context for projects.
