Reviews of professor Casey Bennett

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Bennett's 540 class is great and prepares students for careers in Data Science. Prepare to attend each class and participate - as it's a significant portion of the grade. His style of teaching is different, but is easily the most engaging class I've had at DePaul (and in my life). Really makes learning fun and class go by quickly.

Solid course, I would say that data science courses get better as you go up in prereqs, both in content and in instructors and Dr. Bennett is a good example. This ML course is not based on write the code for the models themselves but rather learning to optimize the hyperparameters and learn the theoretical background behind each model.
