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 ee209@hacking.kaist.ac.kr.
