Although he has a strong accent, because he's Indian, he is a good teacher. He has the students buy a study guide with all his notes and practice tests that are included, this helps out a lot. Definetly recommend.

Don't like stats? No problem this guy doesn't care about you actually learnig the material but passing the course. The easier prof ever. You'll get 3 midterms out of which you get to drop the lowest, then you take the final and that's it. But the best is that you're allow a note sheet on the exams and the material only covers two chapters per test.

Not a good math professor. He assumes you're dumb so does not explain thoroughly and states he'll give you what you need on the exam. The problem about that is that first you don't really learn much, unless you read the book, and second you don't have a full understanding of the subject so it makes it harded for the exams. He needs to learn english

He is a nice person, but he doesn't teach the course well. The majority of the class is lost most of the time (seriously). We got around this by asking for practice tests (so we learned through studying for his exams). Stats is crucial for my program and sadly this class did little for me. If you aren't in the stats program do not take him.

I personally love statistics and this professor has made me hate it. I can't understand any of the material he presents in class, I just read the book.

Very very caring Professor at FIU. However, STA 4321 itself a very hard course. There are a lot of homework but they are very useful in the learning process. A lot of zoom office hours. I wish, I can have him again.

Professor Kibria is pretty chill, and although he does have a pretty thick accent, he is very kind and often funny. There were only five homework assignments, two midterms, and one final with no extra credit or make-ups... but he can be nice on the grading! Took the class as a mini-term (6 weeks) which worked in my favor since the subject is hard.

This is a very hard course and it needs a lot of attention. However, Professor Kibria is a very caring and is an excellent teacher. He is willing to help you and keep himself available both in and outside of classes. I will be taking another course with him in Spring 2023. He is a great professor and strongly recommending for him.

Multivariate Analysis is one of the most difficult courses in my entire life. I was almost dropped the course. However, Professor encouraged me to take it. He gives us tremendous help and time. Spending many hours both in class and office hours, zoom, email. He is very much caring professor. Finally I did very good.

STA 4321 is a very difficult course, requiring Calculus II and III as prerequisites. However, Dr. Kibria is a great professor. He provides excellent class notes with very nice class presentations and is accessible outside of class. He is the fastest-responding professor I have ever known regarding emails. Dr. Kibria is the best.

Golam is very funny and engaging during lectures. His exams are the exact same thing that he covers during the classes. Even without class, the exam is still similar to homeworks. I didn't go to class and did well by studying homeworks. It's not an "easy A," but Golam does the most he can to give students partial credit and boost your grade.

Dr. Kibria is an amazing professor, he works really hard to help his students in and out of class and you can tell that he really cares. The class is really hard but not impossible. If you attend the lectures and complete the homeworks you should be able to do well on the exams

I already had a shaky grasp on my will to live, and he made it so much worse. I never got a grade above D on his quizzes. And a C on his tests. I read the textbook and studied for weeks at a time. It's impossible to pass.

STA 4321 is a challenging course, which Dr. Kibria clarified at the beginning of the class. This is the third time (first time with him), I have taken this class and finally successful. He is a very caring, available and friendly teacher. He knows the material very well, and his class notes are the best. I strongly recommend him for this class.

I had the privilege of learning Statistical Quality Control under Professor Kibria, and it was an outstanding experience. Professor emphasized practical applications alongside theory, which greatly enhanced our learning. Always approachable and created an engaging classroom environment that encouraged questions and critical thinking.
