Make a plan for next semester

Don’t forget: class registration starts Nov. 23 and runs through Jan. 16. Schedule a meeting with your advisor to discuss the best plan for your academic path.

Consider getting involved with Missouri State’s student chapter of the Association of Computing Machinery. It’s a great way to network and get hands on experience with competitions, like the Pummil Math Relays programming competition.
