CollegeEEMB 165 was a very cool class. you should take it. Hofmann is the nicest, coolest professor I've had in my three years at UCSB.
Dr. Hofmann is definitely a great professor! Lectures were clear and very interesting; felt like listening to a podcast. Grading is fair and exams were very manageable as was classwork. Dr. Hofmann was great to talk to after lecture and during office hours. I would highly recommend this class!!!
Professor Hofmann was awesome!! She is obviously passionate about her work and her section of EEMB 3 was super engaging and interesting. It is also the most difficult section of the class, and while it is a lot of memorization, she teaches it in a way that is very easy to understand. She is also very accessible and approachable.
Professor Hofmann is by far the best professor of the intro bio series (and I'd assume upper divs too if she teaches those). She makes lectures very engaging with her silly personality and real-world examples, and does an excellent job of communicating information in a way that is very easy to understand. Definitely take her!
* this is actually for EEMB 92; I loved this course and prof. Hofmann is a gem! The class was more of a workshop on careers in enviro. sci, and was designed to help us consider different career paths. The guest speakers she brought in were so interesting, and she is supportive and passionate about her work- I would love to take more of her classes!
Love Professor Hofmann. 155CC was composed of 4 quizzes instead of a traditional midterm and final. Attendance in section was mandatory. The class was overall very chill and I highly recommend it.
