Comment:

I wound up really enjoying taking ES8 with Abedian. His sense of humor takes a few weeks to get used to but he is hilarious. He focuses a lot on the general concepts behind fluids so get ready to think on his tests. He also makes an effort to learn everyone's name, even if you never went to office hours or are never in the ME department.

I took ME111 Fluid mechanics recently and Prof. Abedian is very good throughout, I knew a lot after this course and he is a very nice guy who wants you to think a lot after class and give him feedback.

Very good lecturer, the notes he writes as he teaches are very easy to follow and understand, provides a lot of in-class examples of problems, has some difficulty fully explaining answers to questions posed by students during class

He is an AMAZING professor! He is very clear and helpful. He's always available to help with homework, even if it's not his office hours. I had him for Fluids and took Advanced Fluids as a Senior just because he was teaching it.
