Comment:
I took his computer architecture class. He believes that you should get the grade that reflects your learning. Some students didn't finish a project during the semester, but redid it in the summer. He was willing to give them credit for their work. He's also easy to talk to and very professional, which is rare in Cooper.

Comment:
let me tell you how this professor is. the lesson is easy to learn. However, the exam is hard. i strongly recommend that he never changes the final-it is open book which means it sucks so bad. 50 percent of the final is design and transmission table-in 40 minutes u should be done. the other part is multiple choice.

Get him to do independent study with ya. Or master's thesis. Esp. if interested in biomed. nobody seems to ask, but when I did, he was more than happy to take on me and my partner. Says meetings can happen anytime so he doesn't want a regularly scheduled class, but still loves 2 teach. So, ask him. We did and it was great.

Rarely available as he basically runs the school. Managed to get into Anat. and Physiology w him cause I want to go to med school. He was amazing and I learned so much. Wish he would get out of the office and into the classroom more.

Losing his touch, he's way too busy doing administrative tasks to put attention to his students. In class he forgets alot of things and occasionally writes mistakes on the board. Overall he's a good teacher, but he bases the final grade way too much on th
