I really enjoyed this class, and I would definitely take it again. One thing I would recommend is to have some Neuro background before taking this class. I am a Psych major and have never taken a Neuro class, so some of the material has taken a bit longer to understand. That's not to say don't take the class, but be prepared to put in a little extra work if you don't have the foundation. Professor Dash is also extremely accommodating and understands that everyone's foundation is different, so he will gladly work with you to make sure you do well in the course. As far as coursework, there are readings to be completed before discussions, there are 3 exams, 2 lab reports, as well as a few other shorter homework assignments that are nicely spaced throughout the semester. Overall, the course is very manageable, and Professor Dash is amazing!

Really great course! Opened my passion for statistics. It's way more easy than i thought before and professor Dash teaches the course in an really interesting way that make us feel that stats is not that intimidating.
Professor Dash brings bubbling enthusiasm to everything he teaches. It was always fun to attend his lectures, and although there was reading, it was less textbook based and more often shorter excerpts very relevant to the class. Additionally, the quizzes and tests were pretty chill. The class culminates with a paper and a project but was altogether a joy.
