Welcome to the CSE Undergraduate Portal

Welcome to the CSE Undergraduate Portal that complements the ugrads mailing list as a means for disseminating information in our undergrad community. If you are not already enrolled in ugrads, you can submit a subscription request at the Mailman link for this list.

A few words about the organization of this page. You will find a set of tabs at the top that will take you to a place containing information of the kind described by the tab. Some of this information is static whereas other parts (like News and Events) are dynamic. Important dynamic components will also be excerpted and included under the "Home" tab, below this introductory text.

This page is intended eventually to be a portal for two way communication. We intend to add theme-oriented blogs and smaller discussion groups eventually. For the moment, we have added a bulletin board where you can provide feedback on ways to make this portal more vibrant and useful as it begins its life. Considered and constructive input is especially welcome---this is intended to be your portal.

If you know of an event, or have an announcement that you think would be of particular interest to CSE undergraduates, you can submit it for approval.
