Final Journal Entry

With the capstone festival just two days away, this post marks my final journal entry. Reflecting upon the past two years, I think what strikes me the most is just how fast those two years went. I remember Dr. Tao telling us at the beginning of the CS Online program that the next two years would be a busy affair, but that it would ultimately fly by. He was definitely telling the truth.

I have learned a great deal since the start of the program. At the program’s onset, my computer science knowledge amounted to basic programming, and some various skills gained from my hobbyist projects. With that in mind, the following lists some of the classes I have taken over the past two years:

  • CST 338: Software Design
  • CST 363: Database Management
  • CST 334: Operating Systems
  • CST 311: Introduction to Computer Networking
  • CST 336: Internet Programming
  • CST 370: Algorithms
  • CST 328: Digital Art and Design
  • CST 383: Introduction to Data Science
  • CST 438: Software Engineering

After reviewing this catalog, and reflecting on my initial skillset when starting the program, it is safe to say my computer science repertoire has grown tremendously.

My path going forward is somewhat undetermined. That said, I am excited to have come this far, and am looking forward to what the future brings.

Logging off,

Jake
