Great prof! Very caring and accessible during office hours, CE4K04 is not a walk in the park, don't hesitate to pay him a visit.

This guy is one of the best profs ever. Explains everything really well, and answers all questions. He really cares about the students and tries to help you out. Go to his lectures. Tests are tough but good if you studied!

Comment:

I am not sure where the negative reviews come from, but maybe because they were old he has changed. He is one of the best professors I have had in civil engineering. He really enjoys teaching and actually cares that students are learning. He always takes feedback and is flexible to student needs. He may seem tough at first but he is a great guy.

Comment:

Not a great lecturer. Class is very boring. And he makes you feel uncomfortable. He will criticize your questions, and then say, 'that's a good question'. Most people who did well, already knew the material!

Very poor teacher. either cannot explain the material or he does not know the subject. Should not be teaching in the university. His class is a waste of time.

Comment:

Dr. Chidiac does know his subject matter fairly well but I think he has a hard time presenting his message clearly. Sometimes he is hard to approach but always tries to be helpful.

Cannot teach, he can stand in front of a class and read an overhead, but that's about it. If your male, good luck, he only helps the girls.
