"Super helpful for career building, resume/CV, technical skills, and critical thinking. He also excited the class about the power of statistics, data, and coding like RStudio, which is helpful."
"Very well organized class. I thought a mix of grad students and undergrads would be hard to balance but Prof. Sheehan did a good job by challenging people based on their levels rather than trying to create a uniform level of difficulty. Lots of support for assignments."
"The course instructor was exceptionally supportive throughout the semester, which made a significant difference in my learning experience. At first, I struggled with statistics and found it quite difficult, especially during my first semester. However, his teaching style, patience, and encouragement completely changed my perspective. He truly was a game changer—like a superhero in the classroom!"
"I loved this course! I was initially very nervous to learn R Studio and coding, but Prof. Sheehan made coding very easy to understand. My favorite aspect of this course was all of the hands-on learning and the final project... Overall, this class made me love coding and gave me so much confidence in using R Studio for my own projects."
