Comment:

Dr. Azemi is One of the Best Professor I ever had. I had him for EE-210&CMPSC . Besides lecture he gave actual hands on stuff to do. He even mentored us building the 3D printer. Besides normal class work he is havily involved in inventing new technology.

Comment:

Azemi wants you to succeed; he will lecture on the material, and he will go through examples in class, but he isn't always the best with the examples (sometimes he gets them wrong). He will also push for you to get involved in extracurricular engineering groups and do research projects, which is nice.

Comment:

Dr. Azemi barely taught this class. He heavily relies on videos created by the author of the text, and the ppts he does provide are contradictory. He assigns an incredible amount of homework, that takes hours to complete. He grades hard, and doesn't feel the need to explain what you got wrong, even if you can prove you were right.

Not very interesting professor. Don't expect to stay awake but do try. Group projects will kill you if you don't choose your members wisely. Don't forget to check your deadlines.

Comment:

Avoid taking his online CMPSC 200 course at all cost, it is not worth it. For an online class it was extremely work intensive. He made two homeworks and a quiz due all in one week on a lesson he would teach that week. Save yourself the time and effort, DO NOT TAKE HIM.

Really great professor although he didn't have to speak or give a lecture at all to us. He will immediately reply to any queries that you may have and has set up the course really well. Gives quite a bit of extra credit and tons and tons of practice!

Comment:

If you can stay away from this professor stay away from him. I had him for psuintrengin and it sucked I had him for matlab it sucked. You will learn more from a latin dictionary flipped upside in a mirror then him. But If you have to take his class get the book and just study or do homework during class you will learn more that way. ask anyone!!!!!

Comment:

I had Dr. Azemi the entire four semesters of my two years at brandywine. I know him very well. He is a very bad professor, always trying to go around things. He clearly doesn't care about the well being of his students or whether they understand the material. All he cares about is basically finishing the semester with everyone passing.

Comment:

He really tries to make sure everyone understands the material, but at times he doesn't understand it himself. He will make up his own answers or come up with excuses instead of admitting that he's wrong. Exams are similar to the past exams he gives out. If you do the work, you should be fine. The concepts aren't too hard. I passed with an A.

Comment:

Dr.Azemi is a really nice guy but definitely not a good teacher. He often makes mistakes in his problem solving sessions and also he uses the solution manual to solve a problem. Avoid him at all cost. Am learning stuff in 310 which i should know from 210 :(

Comment:

Also CMPEN 271/275. Dr Azemi is nice as a person and pretty lenient on hw (no strict deadlines on dropboxes) but he definitely is not a good teacher. He will teach conflicting things and he will make up some absurd reasoning to questions he doesnt have answers to. I would tell you to avoid him but since hes the only teacher in Bwine youre SOL.

Comment:

Dr.Azemi often makes mistakes while solving a problem and won't see it because he does not solve problems completely. He tends to contradict himself as well which is confusing. He has shown a complete lack of understanding about the material he teaches many times with obvious conceptual errors. You will be a step behind students from UP. Good luck.

Very helpful professor, he knows what he is talking about. Lenient when it comes to deadlines and grading. Exams were very easy compared to University Park. If you dont pass his class drop out of EE seriously.

Very bright man. Knows his stuff and is willing to teach you if you are willing to learn. If a student doesn't like it, he or she should quit engineering and go into something better suited to their limited intelligence.

Comment:

This guy isn't as bad as others make him sound. From the 3 week course I took, I saw him trying moderately to get the students active. I don't blame him that the course was a bit bland, it was from 9am-1pm, long and too early. Give him a shot.
