What type of computer do I need to buy?
One question we get quite a bit is "What type of
computer do I need to buy?". Dr. Paul Kube
has put together an excellent web page that will answer this question.

Email Contact
The Jacobs School maintains electronic mailings lists that we use when we need to notify you of course
changes, major requirement changes, announcements of important forums, and even job notices, therefore, check
your UCSD email account regularly.
General
A word to the wise: We are very busy during the first two weeks of the quarter (add/drop period), therefore,
please plan accordingly. One more point: DO NOT believe every rumor you hear, always check with
us first. This will save you a lot of headaches! Believe it or not, the department is a better source of
information than your roommates(s) and/or friend(s).
We are here to guide you and make your experience at UCSD a great one! We look forward to seeing
you in the fall. In the meantime, enjoy your summer.
Respectfully yours,
Viera Kair and Patricia M. Raczka,
(CSE Undergradaute Student Affairs Staff)
