Student Research::
I think the best senior project and masters thesis topics are the ones that a
student comes up with on their own. However, I have plenty of ideas to offer
on a range of topics. If you want to talk through some possibilities, feel
free to come by during office hours, or better yet, send me an email to
schedule a time.

Software Engineering Careers
What is the difference between SE and CS?
The U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics reports the median salary (May 2006)
for computer application software engineers was $79,780 and predicts a 38% increase
in software engineering jobs in the next ten years.
See this link addressing myths on CS careers.
