Some Notes:
Some professor doesn’t offer UROP project. Instead, you can register a course called COMP 4971 Independent Work. Normally professor at CSE will give you decent grade if you work hard.
If you plan to persue a graduate study in Hong Kong, the grade at UG Year 4 Fall may still matter during application (especially if you want any scholarship).
Don’t hesitate to contact me if you want any suggestions on course selection or exchange 😺
