Andrea Vaccari

I loved how enthusiastic Professor Vaccari came to class everyday, it made me more excited to come to class. I also really appreciated how consistent the homework was because we knew what to expect of every week. Some of the concepts can be quite challenging for first-time computer science students, but all of the professors and TAs are so helpful. Expect that some labs go overtime or you might need to do lab work outside of class to finish the assignment. Weekly homework and mini quizzes on Mondays. Tests every other Friday and two exams.

I thought that Vaccari did an amazing job at teaching this class. I had never had any experience with computer science, and I felt like he taught everything to me in ways that I could understand from a non-computing heavy backround

Professor Viccari made the coursework understandable and I was able to follow everything despite having no programming experience. There were no long-term assignments; there were 6 mini-tests, one every two weeks, and a homework assignment every week.
