This is a university degree course which takes enormous effort to complete. But still its beond the programming course range giving you whats not possible to google or learn practical way. Thanks!

Thank you for this exciting course! I did the FP in Scala course a few years ago and decided to do the full certification now. I am looking forward to the next courses in the specialisation.

Great course. The lecture about actors that were mentioned in the beginning of week 4 would have been a nice addition.

Challenging, well-presented topics! The course has opened the door to many avenues of study well past the course itself

Great course. Nice and to the point. I wish there were a course dedicated to Scala web stack (ScalaJs,React,etc. ...)

I'e been using Scala at work for more than a year, but still M Odersky and E Meijer brought me a lot in this course

Last two weeks are definitely confusing, since the staff seems to have rearranged and removed some ofthe content.

Really adds value to the previous course, filling in the blanks on how you might apply it to larger applications.

In week 4 sudden change of teacher and topic from reactive programming principles to Futures is confusing.

Excellent course from the best professionals in the world. The Futures content should be tested as well.
