Courses
A note to the past students of my courses: I keep Web sites of the past courses intact so that you can use it as a reference even after you graduated. However, due to the lack of space, I only keep lecture notes for a few most recent offerings of the same course. If the lecture notes of your course are not online anymore, please, use the notes of the most recent one.

Reference Policy
I am happy to provide job/graduate school references to the past students of my courses. However, to get a positive reference and you should earn at least A on my course and be among the top 10% (for graduate school reference) or top 20% (for a job reference) of students in class. I am also happy to provide references to all students who were working with me in research projects and independent studies producing good results.
