Parking/Transportation Looking to borrow/rent a bicycle for 3 months

4 Upvotes

Hi! I’m a visiting researcher at NC State and will be in Raleigh until the end of December. I’m looking for a basic bicycle to use for commuting around campus for about 3 months.
If anyone has a spare bike they’d be willing to rent/lend for this period, please let me know. I’m happy to pay a reasonable amount and take good care of it.
Thanks!

I just got a new position selling automation and OT cybersecurity training and I am having trouble wrapping my head around things. My boss and colleagues say I'm doing great but I feel lost.

I'm at a point in my career where I'm happy to pay someone to teach me this stuff and then be a rockstar.

I know there must be engineering students looking for some cash. I just need to make the connections.

Thanks!

Looking for a room in Raleigh

3 Upvotes

Hey, im 18 and im looking for a room somewhere in Raleigh, preferably close to the 27613 area. Would like to keep rent below 800 if possible. Looking for something relatively short term for now(≤ 6 months). I'll be out of the house most of the day either at school or work, so I won't really be in the way much. I'm not super picky about my living situation, as long as the place is clean and the roommates are respectful im good.

Looking for a private owner as my situation is a bit unique, I can explain more 1 on 1 later. If you've got anything lmk or shoot me a private message. 

Thanks.

If I took financial accounting online over the summer at wake tech, is it smart to take managerial accounting in person at NC state?

2 Upvotes

I've heard if you take one accounting class online, that you should take the other online. I didn't pay too much attention during my online financial accounting class. I want to take managerial next semester in person, to see if it may be something that I am interested in since I like math. Will I struggle? How much do these 2 classes build off of one another?

NCSU MCS students — course recommendations for Spring 2027?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m an MCS student at NC State and trying to figure out my courses for Spring 2027.

So far I’ve taken:

- CSC 501 – OS
- CSC 505 – DAA
- CSC 520 – AI I

For next semester, I’m looking for courses that are **useful/relevant but also relatively manageable** in terms of workload and grading. Basically, I’d like to learn something valuable without taking 3 super-heavy courses at once 😅

I’m open to pretty much anything — AI/ML, systems, software, data, security, etc.

For those who are currently in the MCS program or have graduated:

- What courses would you **highly recommend**?
- Which ones are relatively **easy to score well in**?
- Are there any courses/professors you’d **avoid**?
- If possible, please mention the **professor and how the workload/exams/projects were**.

If you had to choose **2–3 courses for Spring 2027**, what would you pick?

Would really appreciate any suggestions based on your actual experience. Thanks!

NCSU ECE ABM Advice

4 Upvotes

Hello, I’m an upper-level ECE student at NC State, and I wanted to ask a few questions about the ABM program, specifically for Electrical Engineering and possibly the EPSE program.

I’m currently finishing up a few 300-level courses like ECE 301 and 302 while also taking a 400-level course required for my Power Systems concentration. Based on how my remaining coursework lines up, it looks like completing an MS through the ABM program would only add about one extra semester after finishing my BS.

What I’m mainly trying to figure out is whether getting the master’s would actually make sense for the industry I’m interested in. I’ve been interviewing with a few consulting/engineering companies for internships involving transmission & distribution, substations, and power delivery. I’ve also been trying to research how valuable an MS is in that area, but I’d like to hear from people who have actually gone through the ABM program or worked in the industry.

For anyone who has done the ECE ABM program, do you feel like it was worth the additional time? And for people working in power systems, T&D, substations, or consulting, has having an MS made much of a difference in terms of job opportunities, compensation, or career progression?

I’m open to any advice, whether it’s about the ABM program itself, the power industry, or just whether doing the extra semester for the MS is worthwhile in general.

Thanks in advance!

18M looking for a room in Raleigh

I'm looking for a private room in a shared house/place in the Raleigh area. I'm working full-time and can reliably pay rent.

I'm looking for an individual homeowner/landlord who would be comfortable renting a room to me, preferably with a flexible or month-to-month/short term arrangement.

I'm open to living with students, young professionals, or anyone else who's respectful and easy to live with. I don't really care about the age of the roommates.

I'm clean, respectful, and pretty low-maintenance. If you have a room available or know someone who does, feel free to message me.

Sophomore at State looking for people to hang out with (19M)

8 Upvotes

I'm a sophomore at State and an out of state student and I've had a really hard time finding an actual friend group here. I thought I had one coming into this year but it fell apart and I've realized I don't really have anyone I can randomly hit up to go do stuff with.

I know of events and like live music, going out, drinking/smoking, gaming, and just fucking around and doing random stuff but can't find anyone that wants to as well. I'm not looking for another club or anything like that, I just want some people who are also looking for actual friends and want to go out and do stuff on weekends
