My Plan — Founder / Network Track

Optimized for connections, co-founders, and leadership reps — not grades. Tuition ≈ $1,505/unit. Term: June 22 – August 13, 2026.

Selection principle: course eligibility is a peer filter. Undergrad/Grad-only sections (no high schoolers) hold the older, more co-founder-viable peers. Pick low-pset, team-based courses and deliberately under-load to protect time for the SF/founder ecosystem.

⭐ Recommended — 6 units · $9,030

Course	Units	Cost	Avail.	Why it's here
ENGR 145S Technology Entrepreneurship	3	$4,515	Almost full — enroll now	#1 co-founder pipeline. UG/Grad-only, team-based, taught by VC Rebeca Hwang (a connector). The room your future team is in.
MS&E 288 Managing Innovation (Frontier Tech)	3	$4,515	Almost full — enroll now	UG/Grad-only, simulation/team format. The "Pioneers in Practice" project literally requires building a network + interviewing practitioners. AI/frontier focus, McKinsey-partner instructor. Doubles as leadership reps.
Total	6	$9,030

Optional add: MS&E 254A — The Ethical Analyst (1u, $1,505, available) → 7 units, $10,535. A cheap seminar/debate room — pure articulation & leadership practice.

Lean — Max free time / lowest cost · 4 units · $6,020

ENGR 145S (3u) + MS&E 254A (1u). Entrepreneurship + a discussion seminar, leaving the most time and money for the ecosystem.

8-unit — only if a minimum is required (housing / visa) · 8 units · $12,040

ENGR 145S (4u, $6,020) + MS&E 288 (3u) + MS&E 254A (1u).

✅ Verify this week

Confirm meeting times before enrolling — MS&E 288 (M/W 3–5, possibly Tu/Th) and MS&E 254 (Tue 10:30–2:15) are known; ENGR 145S's time isn't confirmed. Check 254/254A doesn't collide with ENGR 145S.
Verify the minimum-unit rule (Summer Session often requires ~8 units for housing/visa eligibility) — decides whether the lean/recommended tiers are allowed.
Enroll now — ENGR 145S and MS&E 288 are both almost full; term starts June 22.
Skip "Organizations: Theory & Management" (MS&E 180S) — it's undergraduate-only and not actually scheduled in summer. Get the team/leadership growth from ENGR 145S + MS&E 288 instead.
Avoid the time sinks — CS229 / CS107 / CS161 are pset-heavy and would crowd out the ecosystem work that is the real ROI.

我的选课方案 —— 创始人 / 人脉路线

以建立人脉、寻找联合创始人、锻炼领导力为目标，而非追求成绩。学费约 $1,505/学分。学期：2026 年 6 月 22 日 – 8 月 13 日。

选课原则：招生对象本身就是一道人脉筛选器。仅限本科生/研究生（不含高中生）的课程，聚集着年龄更接近、更有可能成为联合创始人的同伴。优先选作业量小、以团队项目为主的课程，并刻意少修学分，为旧金山/创业生态留出时间。

⭐ 推荐方案 —— 6 学分 · $9,030

课程	学分	费用	名额	入选理由
ENGR 145S 科技创业	3	$4,515	将满 —— 尽快报名	首选的联合创始人来源。仅限本科/研究生、以团队为主，由风险投资人 Rebeca Hwang（人脉枢纽）授课。你未来团队就在这间教室里。
MS&E 288 前沿科技的创新管理与落地	3	$4,515	将满 —— 尽快报名	仅限本科/研究生，模拟 / 团队形式。其 “Pioneers in Practice” 项目本身就要求你搭建人脉网络并访谈业内从业者。聚焦 AI / 前沿科技，麦肯锡合伙人授课，同时也是领导力的练习场。
合计	6	$9,030

可选加修：MS&E 254A —— 伦理分析师（1 学分，$1,505，有名额）→ 7 学分，$10,535。一个便宜的研讨 / 辩论课堂 —— 纯粹用于锻炼表达与领导力。

精简方案 —— 时间最多 / 花费最低 · 4 学分 · $6,020

ENGR 145S（3 学分）+ MS&E 254A（1 学分）。兼顾创业课与研讨课，把最多的时间和金钱留给生态圈。

8 学分方案 —— 仅当有最低学分要求时（住宿 / 签证）· 8 学分 · $12,040

ENGR 145S（4 学分，$6,020）+ MS&E 288（3 学分）+ MS&E 254A（1 学分）。

✅ 本周需核实

报名前确认上课时间 —— 已知 MS&E 288（周一/周三 3–5 点，也可能周二/周四）与 MS&E 254（周二 10:30–2:15）；ENGR 145S 的时间尚未确认。注意 254/254A 不要与 ENGR 145S 冲突。
核实最低学分规定（暑期项目常要求约 8 学分才能获得住宿/签证资格）—— 这决定精简/推荐方案是否可行。
尽快报名 —— ENGR 145S 与 MS&E 288 均已将满；学期 6 月 22 日开始。
放弃“Organizations: Theory & Management”（MS&E 180S）—— 该课仅限本科生，且暑期实际并未开课。团队与领导力成长可由 ENGR 145S + MS&E 288 替代。
避开时间黑洞 —— CS229 / CS107 / CS161 作业繁重，会挤占真正高回报的生态圈活动时间。
