“As the second cohort of the MSSE program, our group was still fairly small. This naturally fostered a strong sense of camaraderie amongst us. Self-organized, post-class Zoom sessions became a regular part of our week very early on in the program. We used the time to debug code, navigate through problem sets and collaborate on projects. At times, our conversations also veered toward lively discussions on diverse, thought-provoking topics. Our conversations, continually infused with distinctive perspectives, spanned a range of subjects from local policy to machine learning applications. The multidisciplinary nature of the program, which attracted participants from varied backgrounds, was particularly enriching; we each contributed a unique set of skills and ideas. One of my favorite instances illustrating this diversity was quite early in the program. Initially, the program's emphasis on programming fundamentals aligned comfortably with my background, enabling me to share my software engineering experiences and insights with classmates who had more robust backgrounds in chemistry. However, we quickly pivoted to apply these skills in creating molecular simulations, necessitating the analysis of their performance to gauge their reflection of experimental results. This is where I really got to see the experiences of some of my classmates shine. Given my more software-centric background, I encountered myriad questions, ranging from unfamiliar vocabulary to the significance of certain symbols in formulas we would work with. Collaborating with my cohort to reinforce our classroom learning and embrace our unique skill sets—through peer-teaching—was truly rewarding.” —Anna Weber (M.S.'23 MSSE) #VoicesofBerkeleyEngineering #VoicesofBE Read all of the profiles: bit.ly/3ifpSXy Learn more about the Master of Molecular Science and Software Engineering program here: msse.berkeley.edu

Just completed the Algorithmic Toolbox course from UC San Diego, and I'm thrilled about what I've learned! In this course, I mastered essential algorithmic techniques, learned to design efficient algorithms, and practiced solving algorithmic interview problems. From mastering fundamental algorithms to unlocking new problem-solving techniques, this journey has been both challenging and immensely rewarding. I would like to thank our esteemed Dean Prof. (Dr. ) Abhay Bansal (Dean SCSET), Rajiv Kumar ( Lab Instructor), Dinesh Sahu (Course Coordinator ) for this opportunity. Your guidance has been invaluable. #AlgorithmicToolbox #UCSanDiego #AlgorithmicInterviews

You've probably heard this joke... it's not a bug, it's a feature. (always makes me laugh) 🤣 Of course, it's common knowledge that software bugs are errors, flaws, deficiencies, or defects in a computer program or systems that cause it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result or to behave in unintended ways. But who knows WHY they are called bugs? And who reported the first actual case of a bug being found? Tell me in the comments! 👇 HINT:  International Day of Women and Girls in Science on February 11 allows us to honor women’s significant achievements in science and place a much-needed focus on girls entering Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) careers.

In CS1XD3 Assignment 2, this team of students demonstrated their understanding of State Diagrams by embodying one in a game. This is their warm-up before finding an end-user and using Design Thinking to identify and solve a pressing problem. I don't even know what their problem is, but can hardly wait to see how they solve it. If you are a CS alum, thinking back to your Assignment 2, how does it compare? If you are a hiring manager, are you bookmarking these budding computer scientists?
