Bill Peterson

This class was a lot of fun! Was not too difficult but I still felt like I learned a lot. You should definitely study for the exams, but I feel like the courseload was overall very reasonable. Bill is also super accommodating; if you're going through a tough time let him know and he will be nice.

Bill did a great job in this course. This is one of the more difficult Math / Stat classes, but he was very engaging and made it easy to come to lecture every day. The final exam for this class was difficult.

Dr. Peterson brings such great energy to the class each morning. The course material flows naturally and coherently from one topic to the next in a way that makes it clear why what you're learning matters. Some of the content can be tricky - especially if you have a more limited background, but the learning is so worth it and Dr. Peterson wants you to succeed. Take advantage of his office hours! Highly recommend this course if you're in a math focused or math-adjacent field and willing to put some work into learning new concepts.
