Winter 2015 - MIMG 180A was, by far, my favorite class at UCLA. I would highly recommend waiting to take path II with Dr. Xing. He is the best! He is a really nice guy that is really interested in student success. Although it's only a 2 unit upper division seminar only offered to MIMG majors in path 2, its fantastic and one of the most meaningful class I've taken at UCLA! The class meets once a week for two hours and you get to hear your peers present about their research. It's very relaxed but you learn a lot. In fact, since its capped at 16 students, you really get to know everyone in the class and the professor fairly well.
