Office hour:
Professors' office hours
- Start the email subject with [EE209].
- Set up an appointment by contacting the professor via email.
- E.g., "Hello Professor XXX" is not a good email subject, but "[EE209] Office hour registration" is.
TA office hours
- Office hours are held offline by default. However, if you would like to schedule an online meeting instead, let us know in advance by emailing us at kaist.ee209.ta@gmail.com.
- Office hours are held every Monday and Wednesday, from 7pm to 8pm. Mondays are for asking course-related questions, like getting help for Linux command usage and C language. Wednesdays are for asking assignment-related questions, but keep in mind that we cannot do the debugging for you.
- Visit this spreadsheet to sign up for office hours. You can still visit TAs during office hours even if you hadn't written down your name in advance, but we'd like to get a grasp of how many students will visit in advance.
- Come to the correct office! All TA offices are located in the N1 building, but the office numbers are different depending on your inquiries. More details are provided in the spreadsheet link.
