She is one of the best professors in the CS department. Failling this class was my fault.

Easy enough class. Exams could be aced by pure intuition and a little bit of prep without even attending lecture. Labs took a lot of work but there were a few which were genuinely fun and interesting.

She includes Leetcode, a mock interview, and a project related to neural network in the course. Leetcode doesn't take much time, Mock interview is almost a completion grade, neural network project is mostly done and you do some shallow parts, but from these materials you can tell she's trying to help you out in your future study and career in CS.

Professor Mirza is awesome. She explains concepts very well with analogies and shows us how to approach LeetCode questions on particular topics, which are very helpful for the midterm and final. The labs are super long and hard so don't procrastinate them. Practice lots of LeetCode for this class and understand how to approach the labs to do well.

Professor Mirza's lectures are decent. She is clearly passionate about the topic, and grades a bit more generously than some other professors. However, it's worth mentioning that this course is extremely difficult, with challenging lab assignments and exams. Considerable effort is needed to obtain a good grade in this class.
