One of the better professors in the UNB Mechanical engineering department. He explains concepts clearly and is easy to understand. His tests are tough so you will have to work hard. It is also extremely important to attend his classes.

Called Tricky Rickey for a reason. Seemingly tries to get you wherever possible. English skills are okay. Very limited hours to meet with him, you can't even find him during most labs. Not a positive experience at all. His tests are marathons so watch out.

Material is challenging and requires good math skills. Rickey is a good lecturer. Always willing to help after class. Has an passion for the material he teaches. I suggest doing all assignments, labs and read all notes.

Very helpful prof. The course itself is hard so you have to work to get a good grade. He tries to lead you to the right path. Overall good experience.

Comment:
Does not teach anything in terms of applied control theory. He is jumbled in his descriptions and explanations. Gets a start hard on from failing people, and talks about it years after. I've learned more watching IIT Lectures on youtube than attending his classes. I fully expect material we did not cover to be on the final. Avoid if you can.

Uses the textbook as a guide for the structure of the course. As long as the assignments and labs are done, exams are not too bad.

Dubay is a great guy to talk to but man does he suck teaching. He gets lost every 3rd class and spends the whole class trying to fix his mistake.

This man has one NICE sweater vest collection. and what's up with that big diamond ring? He's a very cool approachable prof and he's pretty friendly. And I quote (with very interested look on his face) "Did someone say Scotch?"
