Prof: Firoza Niknia / Winter 2026

This was one of the worst courses i have taken at york… the content is just not meant for people in courses related to biology and life sciences.. there should be an easier option as a requirement cause not everyone wants to learn programming stuff
Too many assignments…. Midterms are mcq based and the class was not so well organised…. The excel part was understandable even the introduction of R was good enough… but everything after that went above my head.. i could not stay awake in the class due to the boredom
She has a very low voice… doesn’t even know how to connect a projector… just reads off slides… does not know how to engage with people… just says her things and goes out… she has just started teaching and i can tell its not meant for her
If u are taking it for the degree requirements like me.. then don’t make the same mistake… take it with someone else
