Overview

(Page formatting cheerfully borrowed from CS 7934.) The spring 2015 offering of CS 7940 will have "guest lectures in absentia" — for at least the first part of the course, these talks will be drawn from the Design Use Build (DUB) group lunch seminar series at the University of Washington. These talks will cover a variety of topics in human-computer interaction.

Credit

Students may enroll for one (1) credit. Although the University lists the course as “variable credit,” the two- and three-credit options are not currently available.
