Hi guys,
I am applying for the Masters in Science in Computational Science and Engineering program at Harvard and was hoping to get to know about how the program is, how someone who has experienced it has liked it. My primary interests are data science and web technologies.

I have a bachelors in Computer Science and have worked for the past 2 years at a software start up. I did kinda want to work in industry right out of college but I am not that impressed by my progress in the past 2 years and I believe a Masters would help me improve my general software abilities, create connections and then maybe I could get a role at a better start up with more growth opportunities.

I would like to know specifically about the courses that students take and how would you say that has helped you. I looked through the courses here(https://seas.harvard.edu/masters-computational-science-and-engineering/courses) and was wondering if this was the correct location like are these the primary courses which everyone who is doing a masters takes.

What about job opportunities? I am doing a Masters in Science which is typically a 2 semester program but apparently some people do a semester internship and make it a 3 semester program. So I was wondering if that is common, how does that work, does the college help get the internship. Are there several job fairs, companies coming to the university, placement type programs?

Also I did my bachelors in US but I am not a US citizen so I dont think that should cause any issues but just providing that information as well.

Would generally appreciate any information about the program

Tomorrow is off for Veteran's Day. I know the libraries are open but couldn't find any information about the gyms.

Hi everyone! 👋 I’m part of a group of masters students at the med school working to create an event w the goal of promoting inclusion and fostering community and I would love your input! DM me if you’d be interested in chatting!

Hey, I'd appreciate some guidance about MATH S-21B. I'd probably want to take it outside my campus (tuition for summer classes is just outrageous). Does anyone took it during summer? I don't have problems with calculus, got A in both calc 1,2,3; but i'm a math class behind my classmates and have to do it over the summer (Differential equations). I'm assuming S-21B is the correct and not S-21A (for me)

Can anyone share if it doable, very hard and compressed in short period of time,... ?

Thank you :)

Hi all. I’’m a senior and (naturally) having doubts about the way I approached college. I chose my major based off my academic strengths from high school (5 on AP Lang Exam, near perfect scores on Reading and Writing sections of ACT). So I chose to study Sociology since it involves a lot of reading, writing, and analysis. I did debate in high school, had (still have) plans of going to law school. A seemingly natural/good fit.

However, through some courses and conversations with friends, I feel like I shouldn’t have pigeon-holed myself. I feel like I should’ve challenged myself to at least consider CS or neuroscience or applied math or stats. Especially because those skills are needed in the job market. I took intro level stats/data science (programming with R) and the basic math 1a->1b series, but that’s the extent of my quantitative skillset.

I just feel like I could’ve had a more fulfilling and challenging academic career if I did STEM. Sociology felt not so rigorous in a lot of ways. I could do major assignments days before the deadline and get an A. Same with studying for exams.

What is the best way to make the most of this last semester? I’m interested in social sciences and tech as a general growing field (tech ethics, consumer protection, cyber law, etc.). Has anyone regretted their major and have advice for what to do postgraduate?

Hi everyone,

I am looking for two harvard yale football tickets. I am a grad student at HGSE and really want to go to the game. please DM if interested.

Trying to pick classes for next semester and was wondering if there are any good introductory level stat classes to prepare me for stat 110 and stat 111. I was thinking of taking stat 100 next semester, but heard that it doesn't prepare well for stat 110. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks!

I’m a law student and this will be my first year going to the game here in Cambridge.

I have several friends who are coming to town and hoping to attend the tailgate. None of us have actual tickets to the game, just hoping to go to the tailgate for awhile.

Can anybody who has been in previous years recommend where we should go? At Yale last year, there was a huge party like atmosphere, and we walked around freely with alcohol. Is that replicated anywhere nearby? We’re all over 21. And what are bars like that day/night?

Just hoping to be able to show my friends a good time!

Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone,

I am a Harvard public health graduate student and currently, I have dental issue that seriously destroys my life and makes me unable to focus on my studies.

Is there any way to get Harvard Dental care without paying all the plan? Because I can't afford it now. I got the regular health plan but not the dental one.

I know I could get into the museums for free with my Harvard student ID. Now that I've graduated can I still do that? Any other alumni perks on campus? Any benefit to hanging onto my student ID?

Will pay $200 each. Let me know if you are selling or know of anyone who is. That is all. Thanks!

I’m a student at a different university but I just got a job at Harvard that required me to get a Harvard ID. This campus center is pretty chill. I was just wondering if there’s anywhere worthwhile that you normally have to scan into that I can now access. Thanks.

Anyone know of any election night watch parties/events here on campus that are available to graduate students? I don't want to watch alone in my room this year. Thanks in advance!

Hi all - I'm a grad student at HMS and don't know what to do with myself. All throughout undergrad, I participated in a bunch of activities, and now I have nothing going on except for class and homework. How do I participate in opportunities/where do I look? What is there to do? I know HMS has clubs but they don't "do" much, and I want to improve my resume without defaulting to research at the hospital. I'd love ideas :)

Grad student here, have been here for a while at this point. Has anyone noticed the schedule and staffing for the gyms is especially wonky? I mostly use Hemenway and the QRAC so not sure if it's different at the MAC. All the staff who've worked there and were so cool to chat with for a while are not there anymore, and I've heard they fired most of the long-term staff and replaced them with undergrads who don't really know what's going on (not their fault of course!). Did something happen? I just want to do my lifting and use the squash courts.

I heard SEAS has a racing team that was founded in 2014, but I can't find any information after 2017. What happened to the team? Did it disband?

I am an undergrad, junior in College, first time going for a football game, this Saturday against Dartmouth. I asked my friends, nobody is going! Who is interested to join?

I’m trying to evolve my Kadabra and Phantump by trading them, but I have no friends who play here. Or tbh I’ll trade them for anything. If anyone still plays, dm me!

Edit: added second sentence

I have a special guest visiting me next month and I was looking for Harvard-affiliated quiet space for a business meeting.

Any recommendations?

I checked Harvard Club of Boston but the new membership takes 3-4 weeks to be processed.

Thanks!

Hi all! I'm 25 and going to start a postdoc early next year at a hospital in Boston, which comes with an HMS affiliation. I'd love to join gyms and a couple of sports clubs, but am slightly concerned that everyone will be 18 and it will be a) weird that I am there and b) hard for me to make friends. Is that true? Also, if it isn't, how open are these clubs to beginners/people who are just there to get better rather than be competitive? I'm particularly interested in powerlifting and martial arts. Any feedback welcome!

I'm only seeing 9-10:15 am on myharvard; will they add more?

Eg will the Institute of Politics have one? Or the law school?

[might be better to commiserate with people once the bad news starts coming out... whatever happens]
