Winter 2018 - Chem 147 is pretty chill. The quarter you take it really depends on your guest speakers, Winter 2018 had some really cool speakers and then some horrible ones. The class is pretty relaxed though, its a good networking seminar and I'm glad they host this. This quarter we had Clarke, Spokoyny, and Paul Weiss hangout and bring guests over. The only work required is to make a resume and cover letter, which holds practical value if you put effort into it. Best of all they feed you.

Winter 2023 - Very chill seminar with some interesting speakers. All you needed to do for the class was submit a resume (incl. a finalized one after the first) and cover letter to any company/research of your choice, schedule an appointment with a counselor and ATTEND all classes (you can only miss 1). This is a pass/no pass only class. Dr. Jung leading it made everything fun. There was always snacks/light food after and we usually ended earlier than scheduled. Dr. Jung was always encouraging interactions after the class and was overall very kind and attentive to any questions. I hope in the future, they had more industry speakers.
