This is a slightly off-topic post and probably belongs more on live-journal than on a site that’s supposed to be about programming computer games, but it’s my blog and I do what I like 
In a little over a month I start uni again - I only have one semester before I graduate and these are like, my final classes at uni, ever.
- MATHS 328 - Algebra and Applications
- COMPSCI 350 - Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science
- COMPSCI 369 - Computational Biology
- COMPSCI 375 - Picture Processing and Analysis
And no, I don’t have a clue as to what Computational Biology is supposed to be about.
Here is the text from the course catalogue:
This course provides an overview of algorithms and scientific computing techniques in computational biology and bioinformatics. It provides a hands-on Introduction to topics including dynamic programming and string algorithms, Markov models, heuristic search algorithms, tree algorithms and modeling techniques with a focus on problems in biology including DNA sequence alignment and phylogenetic reconstruction.

Maybe you’ll be using trees to make computer programs that will clone more trees? Lol
Do you have any idea what you want to do once you finish this semester?

Start looking for a job, there are a couple of places I’d be interested in working.

What’s your major? I’m sure it’s in your blog somewhere, but I wasn’t looking very hard. I’m Computer Science with 3 semesters to go. I’ll be so glad when I’m done!
Operating Systems
Analysis of Algorithms
Multimedia Systems
Calculus 2
