    I highly recommend this course. Marney is the best professor I have had. She is funny, engaging, and cares deeply about each of her students as individuals. Furthermore, this is the type of class that helps you not only academically/professionally, but also personally. The class is genuinely fun. The engagement with other students is awesome, and the projects challenge you to try new things. And the long-term impacts on one's personal health are apparent.

    10/10 recommend taking this course. The concepts I learned are ones that I apply to all aspects of my life, and have shared with family/friends. Marney makes the content extremely engaging and relatable, and this course really challenges how you think about behavior change within yourself as well as at the population level. I learned a TON and have grown both academically and personally from Marney’s teachings.
