Prof Wagner is very knowledgeable in his field. You can learn a lot from him. I would suggest being familiar with Excel before taking his courses. It will help to organize formulas used in the class. Overall, he's smart and you can learn a lot from him.

Comment:

He is a genius, but a horrible teacher. Unnecessary work outside of class for no reason. Study guide is practically useless. The whole class got behind and still expects us to work on things in the notebook that we won't touch. Makes the class seem like you're back into high school with all of the rules.

A really smart guy, but has you do unnecessary work outside of class. He also expects you to remember the smallest specs. But, there have been worse.

Comment:

Here's what you gotta understand about Wagner. Dude's a genius when it comes to anything engines. HOWEVER, he takes classroom professionalism very seriously. He treats the class like it's your job, so act respectfully. He is a very prideful man and has difficulty admitting his mistakes. Be persistent with his work, show you care, and you're good.

Comment:

he honestly gets more crap then he should, he is a very difficult professor but he does it to make sure students are taking the class seriously. he's not the greatest at being social with a person but the thing is if you actually talk to him outside of class he is a great guy and will help you out.

Comment:

Great teacher who teaches you everything you need to know, however he uses this Auto 114 class to weed out all the slackers who do not want to buckle down and work for their grade! He explains exactly how he grades you and tells you what you need to do to pass so listen up and you will do fine

Comment:

Wagner is just savage. He is fake, very selfish and has no passion for his students and the program. Drops down two letter grades for ridiculous things like going to restroom, asking questions, or talking for a second. Best way to pass is ask guys for photos of tests who already took the class. Guys are right, AET would be better without him!

Comment:

Wagner is misunderstood. He found how to weed out the lazy people and that's why he gets bad reviews. His later classes are tough but they make you get involved. Knows a lot but just wants everyone else to learn.

Be professional, be respectful, do the work(which is easy as hell) and you'll learn a lot from this man. Sure he's a little awkward, but he is also very intelligent and if you show him respect he'll go easy on you.
