This is a great course! The lecturer is very engaging. The content is very well organised and easy to understand. I have learnt a great deal from this course. Thank you!

Well organized and structured. The quizes and assignment are really tough, especially in peer review.

This is one of the best courses. It's for advanced students but still very fruitful.
