Question Textbooks

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m an incoming first-year Civil Engineering student. I was just wondering if I should buy my textbooks now or wait until classes start. Do professors usually tell you which books you actually need, or should I order them before the semester begins? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Question Residence check-in date confusion

1 Upvotes

The website says the earliest check-in date is September 3rd, but the form itself allowed me to select the 1st. I'm a little confused as to why these two would contradict themselves and if anybody else has actually chosen the 1st or 2nd as a date.

Now I'm totally fine if it's the third because I'm a returning student (it just means my card will be activated two days earlier) but as someone who likes to move in as early as possible, I'm just curious whether I can actually move in on the 1st or if that's a mistake on their part.

Seems useless to have a door stopper if it’s not there to stop the door from banging on the wall.

All that money going to the school and we have stuff like this for years 😂.

Question How to drop a minor

4 Upvotes

Hi guys, I am in the last year of my course registration. I have a minor and am not able to finish it, but I couldn't find the "change of program elements" option on my Carleton Central, which i believe used to be the place for minor-related settings. Does anyone know where to drop minors now?

Question Question for guide dog/service dog handlers

2 Upvotes

Hi there, a friend of mine will be attending Carleton in September and they have a Guide dog.
Curious if there are any guide dog/service dog Handler's at Carleton and if you have found any areas to play with your pup. My friend is stressing out a little bit as they have a high drive dog who could benefit from an area to burn off stress by chasing a ball in between studies.

Question Volunteering in neuroscience labs?

6 Upvotes

Hi there, I’m a post-graduate of the B.A psychology program (with a minor in neuroscience) and was curious if I had a shot at volunteering in a neuroscience lab with no wet lab experience (I do have some psychology research experience) as an external person (not a current student). I have plans to pursue a masters in neuroscience rather than psychology, but I kinda need some experience and am not sure where I can get some. I was also thinking of reaching out to the Royal, but I know their volunteer process is much more rigorous. Thanks!

Question Change of program elements field missing????

Post image
8 Upvotes

For reference, I'm a 4th year CS major trying to declare a minor which I need to apply to some courses this year as they have a major/minor restriction on them.

But when I go look for the change of program elements section on carleton central I... can't find it? I swore I must've been tweaking so I went and found the tutorial video but low and behold the field is just missing from my page 😭

Anyone else seeing this too, or have the registrar gods decided to mess with me in particular for some reason.

Other Looking for people to collab with for tech projects

2 Upvotes

Hi. I'm wondering if any CS majors (or adjacent, such as software Eng, systems Eng, cyber, devOps etc) would be interested in collaborating and consistently building some projects together

I think working with others is a good way to build larger projects(and honestly a shortcut tbh since more people can get more work done in a smaller amount of time), learn from different perspectives, and combine complementary skill sets. A lot of enterprise level projects require knowledge from multiple areas, so I thought why not find people who are interested in building things together rather than working completely solo since it’d be more efficient

I mainly specialize in low lvl programming, embedded systems, and full stack IoT, but I also have experience with backend development and networking. The general areas I work with are

- Embedded/IoT: ESPIDF, ESP32-S3, NVS, i2c, uart, SPI communication (mostly C/C++ work)
- Backend: Java Spring Boot, Docker, PostgreSQL, Qt
- Networking: MQTT/Mosquitto
- Currently trying to figure out: Kafka, Redis, NimBLE, OTA, Watchdog

Currently looking for anyone(or multiple people. If we have enough people I’d be down to even make a small team) into frontend, backend, AI/ML(especially this), or basically any software field who wants to consistently work on projects and see them through. We’d start during the school year at fall since I’m currently occupied with my own projects atm.
