This is the page with my academic results from being at university,
including the courses I did while I was in high school. The university
I attended for my undergraduate study was the University of Canterbury where I majored in
Computer Science,
graduating with First Class Honours.
I'm not entirely sure how long I'll keep this up, or how far back or forward I'll be
putting these up. I could put up my high school results as well, I suppose.

This was the first year I got grades in the Japanese system... I've added what I hope are
equivalent
letter grades, and will do so for next year's courses as well.

In 2008 I moved to Japan on the Monbukagakusho Scholarship to pursue my Masters at
the University of Tokyo
in the Igarashi User
Interfaces Lab. My initial focus was on learning the language and sorting out
what research I was going to be working on. Specialised classes came the following year.

In 2006 I attended the University
of Washington on exchange as a Visiting Graduate in the
Computer Science department
for my Honours year. The grades in the US are based on a 4.0 scale ('A' being the
highest), so there isn't a direct grade equivalence to being in New Zealand. I've put in
grades where available, as a lot was just on a credit/no-credit basis. I steadily
improved my grades over the year, getting 4.0s in my last quarter - I guess it took me
a while to get used to everything! My cumulative GPA for the year was 3.66, whatever that
means.
