Hilarious professor. You'll enjoy his lectures. Material is extremly useful. It's sad that Fall 2014 is the last time this course will be offered.

Comment:

In terms of helpfulness and clarity he's not very good. But definitely you'll find his lectures full of fun! He'll inspire you rather than just teaching you during his lectures. Also, I'm a super smart person that doesn't need any assistance from others, and EE is only for super smart people like me. In short: this professor is good for smart ppl

Comment:

He is literally the worst professor I 've had in USC. His lecture was very random and he made several mistakes in every single lecture even midterm and finals. The format of the exams are ridiculous as well. This is a S H A M E to have this kind of professor in USC. I wrote this not because I got bad grades in this class, I just learned nothing.

Comment:

Put simply: a cute, veteran electrical engineer who loves teaching. Some of the material was hard to understand through his accent and/or assumption we understood concepts, but otherwise he taught well. Really cares about the success of students, and tries to keep the class fun. Wouldn't take him for a harder class, but 201 was fun. Avoid Puvvada!

Comment:

Exams aren't that difficult. Almost everything he teaches in class will be on the exam(two exams). He even tells you the different sections and subjects on the exam prior to the actual exam date. If you get half of the points of the exam, you pass; It will not guaranteed you an A. Text book, in this case means,Course Reader!There's a final project.

Comment:

Good guy, ok professor. I liked him, and he's kinda funny. He's certainly not bad by any means. Things could maybe be a little clearer, but he's helpful and willing to to a lot for his students. You do have to put in effort for the exams, since they do actually test your understanding of the material well.

Comment:

So this is a guy that's clearly on the back nine.... don't expect much out of him. That being said he's fairly entertaining, he will call on everyone present in class but all you have to do is answer a few questions correctly and he'll see you're competent. Answer a few more of his poorly phrased questions and he'll think you're a genius.

Comment:

So he's funny and cool at first but the jokes get old fast and you don't learn much from him. He learns everyone's names..big whoop. He uses that to be able to ask everyone questions throughout the lectures and make people feel like idiots when they don't understand the stuff he didn't explain well.

Pretty much what everyone else said. Spends all of class talking about marines/republicans. It was funny at first, but now that we're actually supposed to know stuff, everyone hates him.

Comment:

If you take a class with this professor, you're pretty much on your own. I went to class for two or three weeks before I realized he would never lecture on the subject. I stopped going to class and ended up with better midterm grades than my friends. Read the book on your own or take another professor who cares about teaching.
