Comment:

I took this class as a pres-session class, and it is in your best interest to put in 6 hours a day. He made all the materials available a month before class started, so it was definitely possible to get it all done. He even answered questions at 11 PM on a weekend. You put in what you get out. He is willing to always help.

Dr. Yildirim is an incredible professor that cares deeply about your understanding of the material and your success in the class! I took the online winter pre-session but still met face-to-face with Dr. Yildirim many times throughout the course.

This class is one of the only classes I learned a lot of helpful concepts in and can also relate to my work-life. The class can get long but Dr. yildirim keeps it interesting and very engaging. There is a lot of reading involved but as long as you do the homework you will get a good grade!

He is friendly but his tests can be a bit hard. There are quizzes but they are helpful to use as study material.

Dr. Yildirim is a great professor, if you have the chance, take the pre-fall class. Attend class and do your best. He responds fully to every question and truly wants to help you get the material and help you pass.

I took Engineering Economy in the summer 2017 presession with Dr. Yildirim. I would suggest you do the same. 2 weeks, extra credit, but lots of information. Make sure you are ready to dedicate those 2 weeks to ONLY this class. Dont miss a day or you will struggle as one class is basically a week and a half of regular classes.

He upload a videos of his lectures that you can use in case you missed a class. However, I took it in a pre-session which was kind of hard little bed. The instructor was very excellent in explaining the materials but you have to practice to get a good grade.

Comment:

I recommend taking the summer pre-session class. If you take the pre-session you should study/practice everyday, and ask for help when struggling. it's not an easy subject, so make sure you're only focusing on it during the 9 days. Take advantage of ALL the extra credit, go to EVERY class, and you should do well. Dr. Yildirim is a great instructor.

Comment:

Dr. Yildirim is a great professor I highly recommend taking the presession if you want to get the class out of the way, best way to spend 2 weeks rather than 16 weeks in the class. His study guides and example problems are very close to what the actual test will be.

Dr. Yildrim is an excellent instructor. If you have the option, take the condensed class in the summer. Its a rough two weeks, but you retain the information easier. He offers lots of extra credit opportunities so if you take advantage of these, you will have to try to fail the course. Answers questions thoroughly and does lots of practice problem

Comment:

Dr Yildirim is a good professor. He is graded by a few things which are quizzes, test 1, test 2 and finals. I took this class in the summer pre-session and I really like the class because Dr Yildirim tries to make the class more interesting although it is a tough class. Don't skip class if you want good grades for this course. Good luck!

Comment:

I took this class, starting out, as an online class. I ended up having so much trouble with the content that I started attending the on campus class just to understand the content, while still paying the online fee. The lectures were from 2010. In my few encounters with him, he was rude. Although I did understand the content, it was a lot of work.

Took this as a presession and it was definitely fast as expected but the material was not too complex. Make sure to understand all the proper steps and he usually grades giving partial. Focus on first few chapters for a strong foundation, Good luck

Comment:

Hybrid class. He is very smart and conducts the class his way.. No exceptions. The class starts out very tough, but after he weeds several "weaklings" out, he'll start to curve depending on how the class is doing. He outlines, explains material very well and the online lectures are great.. Not long and can be watched any time.

Comment:

be prepared to work/study hard. Dr. yildirim covers alot of material and difficult material at that. however he provides many study aids, you can even review/watch lecture @ home on panopto video. you won't leave this class w/o learning something. you will do well as long as you can prove you understand a portion of the material.
