5. Syllabus and Schedule

Closing thoughts I am excited to be teaching this course with you. Please note, although I have been teaching parallel programing and HPC of for almost 10 years, this is the first time teaching it as an undergraduate course in this format. We will need to work together to make sure we are achieving the learning goals. Please be patient and flexible as we learn together and adjust throughout the semester.

Congratulations, we're done!
