The CSE ULCS & MDE/Capstone Survey collected qualitative feedback and advice from current CSE students about ULCS and MDE/Capstone courses they have taken. The information shared here is subjective and shared by individual students. As of April 2026, the survey has received 115 responses, with direct quotes and overarching themes summarized in the sections below.

This page is divided into two sections (ULCS & MDE/Capstone) to reflect the different program requirements. Use the slider on the right to jump to a specific class. Within each class, feedback is organized by the most recent semester (WN26) followed by responses from previous terms.

Notes:

• If you see a class without feedback or you want to add your own feedback regarding classes you took, please consider helping future students by filling out the survey here: CSE ULCS & MDE/Capstone Survey.
• If you would like more information about a course, check out the Course Sorting Tool, consult the CS Course Info Page (eecs.io), schedule an appointment with the CSE Undergraduate Advising office, or email the instructor listed in Wolverine Access.
