(SOC618) Great professor, and a great course! Fabien teaches well, assigns interesting readings, and gives a lot of flexibility with the project. Don't skip readings. Pick a research topic that you love. If you've never done much programming, you'll need to put in more time than most people to learn R.Rate My Professors ↗

Super nice professor who you can tell genuinely cares about the subject and students' understanding. Easy class if you're interested in the subject, otherwise the readings can get tedious but overall not bad.Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Super interesting professor and he clearly knows a ton about the subjects he teaches. The class is almost entirely built based on discussion of the readings, and there are a LOT of them, but read them and show up to class and you'll do well.Rate My Professors ↗

There was a significant amount of reading for each class, however each reading was fairly understandable and was thoroughly covered in class discussions.Rate My Professors ↗
