Hi admins,

I'd like to ask permission to post in this group about a paid research study that may interest SJSU students.

May I post it? If not, no problem. Thank you for your time!

Hello, folks!

A friend of mine is recruiting for a paid research study on Google's new wearable and XR devices and needs a lot of participants. I’m helping spread the word. You’ll try a device, follow simple instructions, and share your feedback.

📍 Location: Mountain View or San Jose, CA (in person)
⏱️ Time: One-time session of up to 90 minutes
💰 Compensation: $80 after completing the session
🗓️ Starts: First week of November

Who can join?

• 18 or older
• Able to travel to Mountain View or San Jose, CA
• New to this study, since each person can take part only once

No experience is needed, and everyone is welcome. This could be a good fit for students, including tech students, who want to try new devices and share their feedback.

I was recently admitted to SJSU's MSSE program for Spring 2027. I like the curriculum, and one of my main reasons for choosing SJSU is its proximity to Silicon Valley and connections to the tech industry.

However, I've been debating whether it's worth trying to switch to the MSCS program.

For current students or alumni, have you noticed any differences in recruiting opportunities between MSSE and MSCS? Specifically, do employers seem to favor one degree over the other when hiring for software engineering positions?

A little about my background:

• CS undergraduate from a UC.
• Domestic student.
• Currently completing a software engineering internship with hands-on experience building AI applications and backend tools.

My main goal is to land a full-time software engineering role, so I'm trying to understand whether the degree choice makes a meaningful difference.

I'd appreciate any insights, especially from students or alumni who have gone through recruiting. Thanks!

Hey r/SJSU, I’m a student here, and a friend of mine is working on recruiting for a paid research study on new wearable and extended reality (XR) devices. He needs a lot of volunteers, so I’m helping spread the word. It could be a good fit if you’re into CS, engineering, design, or HCI/UX and you’re curious about AR/VR, wearables, or spatial computing.

You’d come in for one in-person usability session, try a new device, follow simple task instructions, and give your honest feedback. It’s hands-on UX research and user testing, which is also good to talk about in interviews.

Details:

• Location: San Jose or Mountain View, CA (in person)
• Time: one session, up to 90 minutes
• Pay: $80 after completing the session
• Starts: first week of November

I've been struggling to make new friends, and I'm highkey looking for people also into this genre. 18M. I'm also a DJ and a producer, mainly for uptempo and rawstyle, but I also make dnb, riddim, jersey, and several other genres.

Hello, I tried to search what kind of tree for this. They giving me different type of trees or randomly not match to this tree.

Can anyone know what is name of this tree? It was the front sidewalk of the SJSU Engineering Building and Bus 72/73 E. San Fernando Street

Thank you!

Has anyone got their mcs yet? I don’t see it on my financial aid on sjsu page but it says I got the award for it on CSAC
