Dr. Kondo is a very sweet professor, she will be in all your lab sections and has no issue helping you throughout the lab. She'll answer all your questions without judgment, and will do her best to make sure it makes sense to you. She is also very understanding. The labs themselves are pretty straightforward, and her TA's do most of the grading. There's about 6 labs in total, and a "design your own lab" at the end, which is just replicating one of the previous labs, and you can choose which lab. It answers a slightly different experimental question, but you can still do PCR, gel electrophoresis, a BSA assay, etc to answer it. Overall, it's a manageable class, and you do learn a lot of valuable bioengineering lab techniques. |

She typically is your only option to take BIOE121 in the spring, but overall, she isn't too bad. Sometimes she forgets to do things and doesn't know how to use her laptop, but overall she's okay. She'll be in your lab sections and she'll help out. The labs themselves also are not too time confusing but the lab notebook is due the same day and it can be pretty annoying to finish, especially if you have a later lab. Just pick a good group to work with and you'll be fine. |
