He is a goof prof, he has his way of teaching. If you work hard, you will get good grade. His explanations are very clear and pointing out what you are looking for.

Comment:
Overall not a good prof. If you ask him a question about the material, he will laugh at you, and then begin to insult you. His teaching consists of reading from a power point that came with the textbook. If you're not fighting to stay awake, you're biting your tongue because of his ignorance. I really wish that his class wasn't mandatory. Dynamics.

He is set in his ways. Someties a huge annoyance but he is a good teacher. Easy to learn in his class if you take notes and pay attention. Study for quizes, it could be deciving.

Comment:
He knows his stuff, but hes an arrogant tool at times. His accent makes it hard to understand occasionally as well. But like any course if you do the work you'll learn alot. I didn't love nor hate him... even though I pretty much never went to his classes (8:30's) and still managed to pass

... if you actually want to learn anything during your years of engineering, take a sastry course. It seems like a lot of work, and sometimes he can be an arogant a**... but who cares, he isnt suppose to be your friend. I got A`s in his design, economics, and fluids class. If you go to class, do the assignments, its as easy as any "arts" course

Very hard course, and sastry doesn't make it any easier. Great guy mind you, but test and quizes are tough. He does scale marks, so if you are thinking about withdrawling at the last minute, DONT. If you dont pass, he will most likely pass you, and this is coming from someone who got an A+
