I just finished Week 10 of 16 of my SWE internship. I guess things are starting to wrap up a bit, both with this internship and my Japanese class (almost 100% gonna get an A). As for whether I get a return offer, I’m actually not too sure, but I already have a return offer from my summer SWE internship, so it’s all good. I also registered for my Spring 2027 college classes:

CS 6460 - Educational Technology

CS 7530 - Randomized Algos

CS 8803 - Program Analysis

CS 8997 - Teaching Assistant

CSE 6242 - Data/Visual Analytics

MATH 6338 - Real Analysis II

MATH 7339 - Advanced Analysis

My reasons for taking each class: CS 6460 and CS 7530 are due to Bimikel, CS 8803 is due to both the instructor and another friend taking the class, CSE 6242 is an ML requirement that should be easy, MATH 6338 is a requirement, and MATH 7339 is an elective that goes along with MATH 6338.

I still haven’t gotten any info about which class I’ll be TA’ing next semester, or if they’ll even hire me at all. I’m cool with undergrad algos (CS 3510) again (for the fifth time), but I would prefer grad algos (CS 6515) or complexity (CS 4510).

So what are my goals for next semester? Well, since I’m expecting my classes to be easier and lighter than my Spring 2026 classes (hopefully that’s true), I’m hoping to focus more on taking fitness classes and attending some clubs (programming team?).

There is only one week left to submit the 2026 DMC 10/12 A/B! Get your submissions in! Also, check out the 2026 KMMC 10, run by r00tsOfUnity!
