I'm only taking four courses since I need to keep working if I want to keep making a living. >.>

Anyways:

Creating by Algorithm
Collaborative Projects and Research II (This one is three hours with a guest lecture on a separate day for only an hour)
Rapid Prototyping through Somatic Research
Performing in Digital and Hybrid Ensembles

I'm also doing a work study in a Fabrication Lab on campus, so I'm practically living there. And by 'there' I mean Arizona State University and I'm a Digital Culture student in Music. I'm playing with the idea of going for a Masters, but I'm not sure about that just yet since I have until next Fall to make that decision.

My goodness! You guys are all taking such frightfully boring courses! Well, to each their own, I suppose.

Anyway, as to the OP's question, my courses are:

Early Middle English Literature - ENGL 342
Late Antiquity - GRS 350
Crime in Medieval England - HSTR 412A
Reading, Writing, and the Book in the Medieval World - MEDI 451
Ancient and Medieval Political Thought - POLI 300A

I am indeed studying Medieval history.

Hmmmm... two hour-and-a-half seminars on Biblical context and purpose on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday... and 8-12 hours of homework daily.

This'll be a change.

I also do Undergraduate Research, which requires about as many hours as a class. However, I actually get paid to do it.
What are you working on? I did undergraduate research over the last two summers and it's been pretty interesting. Would be nice if it paid a bit more than minimum wage though...
I'm working on a few things actually. Initially, it started off on learning how to set up a specialized email server. Right now I'm working on parsing emails. Eventually, I'll have to start making that parser "smart" enough to "teach itself" how to parse things it has never seen before. That last part is going to be, by far, the hardest part of my research. I do have to say I'm really excited to see if I can pull it off before the research ends, especially since I still have to allocate some of my time to do things manually until then.

I finished my university stuff in 2008 but I think I can actually still remember all the courses I took since I only took as many as needed to finish. Back then we had a different way of studying humanities in Germany so I could only finish with something which nowadays would be considered a master but you couldn't do less than that if you wanted a proper diploma of some sort at the end.

Basic study period (smth like Bachelor):
PHILOSOPHY
Leviathan by Hobbes
Introduction to Philosophy
Niklas Luhmann (cant remember the book though)
Epistemology
Logic
Meditations by Descartes

HISTORY
The late Roman republic
Bismarck's Kulturkampf
The Ottonian dynasty
Latin

GERMAN PHILOLOGY
Pragmalinguistics
Linguistics I+II
Historical linguistics
Kleist

Main study period (smth like Master):
PHILOSOPHY
Selected Western and Chinese philosophy in comparison
Philosophical foundations of Neuroscience
De Anima by Aristoteles

HISTORY
Constantine
Friedrich III.
Ancient Greek

Master thesis: "Arianism under Constantine"

Left school after 6th form because I knew University would just be a waste of my time and money; I already knew what I wanted to do, and I didn't need a degree to do it.

And I am bloody glad I did.

I am taking a laboratory course in molecular biology and biochemistry with main focus on use and manipulation of DNA and RNA.
Comparative and ecological physiology
Methods in Cell biology

These 3 courses may be the last courses I ever take.

Try and get as much work sub teaching as I can, also try and get as many pupils for tutoring as possible, save money for paying off car and holiday at Christmas, and take up martial arts. That's my plan for the year.

I finished college last may and I'll be graduating with a bachelors in computer engineering this november so go me. Knowing that it's this time of year again, but I don't have to go back to classes is the greatest feeling in the world. Especially following 17 straight years of academia. It's like summer holidays except it never has to end.

As for what I will be doing with myself, probably piss about for a while and wind up doing something completely unrelated to my degree. Incidentally, not having student loans is also amazing. Ok, I'll stop now.

I have German classes[footnote]Ich spreche schon ein bisschen Deutsch. Just need some vocabulary and proper learning before I'll be confident enough to speak to natives.[/footnote] starting on September 28. It's an hour and a half a week for 10 weeks.

Wow. That's heaps.

I'm a lazy git, so I'm only taking Discrete Mathematics, Differential Equations, and Programming in C. All late in the day, I don't pay money to get up before noon.
The first two were fun classes. C was dull and as far as programming languages go my least favorite I had to work with.

Java's easier than C. Less pointer annoyances

CS or CE major?

CE, with a focus on programming.
I was guessing if it was one of those it'd be CE due to the Diff Eq. That's what I went for. Same with the programming focus. CS that switched to CE.

I was told so after I started then switched becaude of thst. Of course I was told by my super tough physics teacher so I'm not sure I should have believed him. I certainly found the EE parts more tedious.

My mother is an electrical engineer. She may have overstated how easy some of this, but it is fairly easy.

It isn't too bad and it complements some CS stuff pretty well. I just had no interest in circuits and there was a lot.

I still have to take those classes. Some people in my DM class are saying the notes are practically the same for digital circuits.
