He is really an amazing professor and brings so much enthusiasm to the classes! He comes really accurate with the choice of papers that are fundamental and practical. I am enjoying all the readings, lectures and group projects too! He gives timely feedback on projects, so you will definitely learn a good comp arch mindset and RTL coding skills!

Balkind is an amazing professor. Lectures are interesting and really help you connect with the material. Don't listen to the negative reviews on here. He's a newer prof but really cares about teaching and puts in a lot of work towards improving his classes. He's also a really interesting person to talk to. 15/10 would recommend taking his classes
