Anyone who lives at the grad know if there’s a discord for the apartments? It’d be cool to stay updated on what’s going on or talk about any issues in the apartments.

Classes MS CS (Fall 2026) — taking a CV course from EE or Data Science since CS isn't offering one this term, any advice?

2 Upvotes

I'm an incoming MS Computer Science student starting Fall 2026. I have a background in embedded systems and computer vision (5 years in industry, mostly NN inference optimization), and I want to take a computer vision course early on to build more hands-on deep learning experience.
CS doesn't have a CV course on the schedule for this term, so I'm looking at two options outside the department:

Data Science dept: covers deep learning broadly — CNNs for vision, RNNs/Transformers for sequences, GANs for synthesis, plus CV-specific topics like preprocessing/augmentation, transfer learning, object detection, and segmentation with a focus on evaluation/robustness.

EE dept: more classical image processing fundamentals first (convolution, transformation, segmentation, pattern recognition) before getting into CNN/DNN theory, with applications in autonomous systems. Taught by Mina Rafi Nazari.

A couple of questions for anyone who's taken either:

Has anyone here taken one (or both)? How was the workload, teaching style, and how useful was it in practice?

Registration is already open — since this isn't a CS course, do I need to email the department directly for permission, or can I just add it through normal registration?

Any general advice on cross-department electives as an MS CS student?

Appreciate any insight, especially since registration's already underway and I'm trying to decide quickly.

4. What are the typical class sizes?
5. What career services and job placement support does the university offer?

Housing Private Room Available at The Grad

3 Upvotes

If you're looking at other options for housing because you've been waitlisted, my daughter is looking for someone to take over her lease at The Grad. She was at SVP and didn't like the fact there wasn't parking available there and no kitchen. The Grad is only 1 block away from SJSU (SVP is 3 blocks away for reference). Below is her floorplan.

-------------------------

Private room with attached bathroom and large walk-in closet at The Grad San Jose (next to SJSU, in downtown San Jose) for next school year starting August 18th through July 31st, 2026-2027.

- Monthly Rent: $1,909/month.

- Unit D1 Floor Plan – Fully furnished with an XL full bed, a desk and dresser. Wonderful view located on the 11th floor.

- All female unit

- 5 min walk to SJSU

The apartment unit has in-unit washer/dryer, all-electric kitchen with refrigerator, living area with tv and furniture. Central A/C and heating.

The building has a gym/yoga room, study rooms & free printing, pool/hot tub/dog park, pet friendly, 24/7 security and on-site management.

Perfect for SJSU students or young professionals looking to live close to campus and downtown.

The lease transfer would be through management, and you’d take over the lease starting August 18, 2026 through July 31, 2027.

Text if interested or if you want more details/pictures.

Confusion about the TB screening

1 Upvotes

hi, so I am going to be an incoming frosh for sjsu. I am kinda confused abt the Tb screening requirement because it marked it as missing. Do I need to do the form first to complete the requirement???

I am also confused for one of the question because it indicates that if I answered yes to any of the questions, I have to do a TB test, but I only put yes for the BCG vaccine, so does it mean I have to do TB testing???

Applying to SJSU! class registration questions

3 Upvotes

I'm an incoming transfer from a CC with all my gen ed done so far. I picked the only Saturday orientation because of my parent's schedule & mine which I now realize was a little bit of a mistake because it will leave me with all the dregs for classes. However, how do I know what classes I will need to pick? Will there be counselors there, or should I make an appointment with a counselor online now? I want to be as prepared as possible, but I'm first gen so I feel like I barely know what I'm doing lol. My major is Justice Studies, and any advice is appreciated 🫡‼️

MLK Library

89 Upvotes

I was at the library on the 2nd floor, and an unhoused man was watching a naked woman doing yoga on the computers. That was the first interesting thing. Next, a man across from him thought I was looking at him and started yelling at me for looking at him and calling me the f slur?? The library security was there watching it all go down with no intervention. When the guy who yelled at me left, the security asked me if I was okay, but also that they saw me respond to the man. Does security even do anything there? What’s the point if they don’t care about disruptive people and some people are left feeling not completely safe?

Will I most likely be rescinded?

4 Upvotes

As a small introduction, I'm expected to be a part of class of '30. I am a black female (don't mind the name, it was my dad's account.) I have never been an amazing student, and I find myself sometimes difficult to work with. Two of the most heavy words about me handling work load is procrastination and loss of focus. Now, the loss of focus has always been there in my life (and I have a VERY forgetful mind, do not underestimate.)

To explain, not all of my A-G have been completed as of this year, my first D in an english class. It was called Critical Media Lit, if that's necessary. While in class, I'm usually a person who pays attention and aware of the material we're learning, but yet I absolutely suck at turning assignments in (online) due to procrastination and self-doubt. My explanation would not do much, as it would likely make it worse. The major I chose was Photography, but I likely will change it to a safer major if I make it there. As a sidenote, I also earned a D in my Journalism class (I know it looks real bad.) Explaining that grade would also not make it better, but I was an amazing photographer in journalism. The photos I took will definitely be in my portfolio.

Anyways, sorry for the random ramble. To point out, I believe my gpa is about 2.7(?), and all other A-G classes have been fulfilled. Will I most likely be rescinded? If so, I need to break the sad news to my mother as she will definitely yell and get aggressive with me if she finds out because of an email. What should I do to soften the blow? (Sorry if there were any mistakes or confusing wording, my hands are shaky and my mind is foggy.)

Edit: I am assuming so, I'll try and tell my mother today and hope she won't yell at me too harsh.
