First, please read the Course Syllabus very carefully.
CSCE 520 Database System Design or by Instructor Approval.
All CSE majors can enroll in this course as long as you meet the prereqs for the class [CSCE 520]. Python programming skills is highly recommended.
Other majors can enroll in the class, they should sign up after the CSE majors and might have to fill out the override request form.
Graduate students (CSE and all other majors including Math, Engineering, Science, Psychology, Chemistry, Law, pretty much all) are encouraged to enroll in the class. This is a suitable class for anyone interested to know more about ML Systems.
We encourage all students to actively participate in the sync classes (by asking or answering questions, sharing experience, discussing project ideas, etc). Active participation will enhance your learning experience and that of the other students. We will record the lectures for those who cannot attend the sync lectures.
I would encourage you to discuss or brainstorm with other students or professors about the assignments, projects, and homework, but submissions should acknowledge all collaborators and sources consulted. We will actively check for code and other kinds of plagiarism (both from current classmates and other available online sources). We trust you all to submit your work, but be aware if you plagiarize from other students or online sources, you will simply fail this course. Also, all the potential Honor Code violations will be reported to the Office of Academic Integrity, which has the authority to implement non-academic penalties as described in STAF 6.25.
Reasonable accommodations are available for students with a documented disability. If you have a disability and may need accommodations to fully participate in this class, contact the Student Disability Resource Center: 803-777-6142, TDD 803-777-6744, email sadrc@mailbox.sc.edu, or stop by LeConte College Room 112A. All accommodations must be approved through the Student Disability Resource Center. See.
