What is your favorite class at Yale SOM?

The Operations Engine course quickly became my favorite, despite my lack of experience in operations-related fields. Initially, I was uncertain about how much I would enjoy the course, but I was soon proven wrong. I found the content fascinating, especially when learning about calculating and optimizing efficiency across various domains. Prof. Lesley Meng, our instructor, stood out due to her engaging teaching style and her ability to connect with students. She consistently simplified complex concepts, making them easily digestible. Ultimately, I appreciated how this class was applicable to various aspects of work, even if not directly related to operations, which is what I valued most about it.
