Great course. Nick and Phil are great to listen to, the course tells you everything you need to know about networking. Some parts of it are a little hard, but generally, many great computer science problems have been solved in networking, and it would be a mistake not to have this in your repertoire.

It is not the simplest course for an undergraduate but it is very much rewarding. Both instructors are great and it is a wonderful resource for students/engineers who are into network engineering.
