Dr. O'Hara is one of the best professors on campus. Very few people come to class to her level. She is not only funny but also very supportive. I am extremely grateful to have chosen the Host-Pathogens Interaction stream for the FIRE program. Her knowledge is impressive, and she is highly involved in our learning process. The course is quite easy, provided that you complete all the assignments. I highly recommend selecting her for FIRE198 and considering a position as a peer research mentor in her lab for FIRE398.

Dr. Weiner is hands-down the best professor I’ve ever had. Over the course of a few semesters, I have learned research techniques that you would struggle to find in other labs, and these skills set me up for success in other courses, like microbio. She is so kind and caring, and understanding of extenuating circumstances. She treats you like a human and has a breadth of knowledge shes willing to teach you. Ill miss my time in her lab.

Currently in FIRE 398 and I will say, Dr. Niu is the best professor I ever had! She is very passionate about Project Greenhouse and will go to lengths to explain concepts in details along with physically visiting some off campus places like the golf course. Overall, one of the top tier UMD instructors!

I'm a Peer mentor for Dr. Z's Cellex class (298). Literally the nicest woman I've ever met. She is super understanding and kind and respectful. You really can't ask for more. Interesting research and great prof. Go take.
