Amy Briggs

This course is a lot of coding and the challenge of this course really emphasize to be knowledgeable on data structures and algorithms, which is one of the most important things to learn in computer science. Therefore I would say the lab work and the homework is really helpful.

This course was very fast paced with lots of complex content if you are not familiar with java. I found the labs and homework to be the most beneficial part. But the lectures sometimes weren't too relevant to actual work we had to do.

Professor Briggs is not the most engaging lecturer, but she does a solid job of clearly explaining the fundamentals of data structures and algorithms. This course is essential for every computer science major student at any institution. Taking it with Professor Briggs is a decent experience overall. Expect weekly labs and programming assignments, along with a midterm and a final exam.
