He is one of the best Professors I studied and really glad I took that course. I would recommend students interested in Network Engineering to take the course.

Comment:

Very nice and helpful Prof. His way of teaching made this course eve more interesting. When needed, he will extend assignments and labs. Labs and assignments are very interesting, challenging and a bit long. His "inverted classroom" style of teaching helps a lot! Great Prof overall.

He is a very good prof. Cares greatly about his students and goes the extra mile that other professors do not when it comes to recording his lectures and emailing useful information consistently.

Comment:

You won't miss one of his lectures because he makes them interesting, and he'll change the course time if it's before lunch. Labs were very hard, so get help from the ta's. Cares for students, willing to answer questions. Hard to contact through e-mail. Screwed me on a bonus project though, I think he took off to climb Mt. Everest or something.

Very Easy Prof for a very easy school. Wow engineering is so easy at McMaster. I wish I had gone to Waterloo for a challenge. I love this school sometimes they just give away marks.

Interesting Course Material. Exams are way too long, and class was pretty disorganized. Nice guy, you can always twist his arm to get an extension, but he needs to be more organized.

Comment:

This man is obsessed with Apple.. If he could marry it, he would.. Szymanski is a nice guy, but he made all his midterms & assignments TOO HARD. Everyone goes into exam 50%. Unsure with his own material, needs to reference "The Book" all the time. But did let us watch "The Matrix" on the projector.

Prefers abstract material, and only seems to consider the highest level of students when teaching material - good prof but should take all student levels into consideration.
