Comment:

Decent professor. For an entry level class like ENGR201 he assumed a lot of prior knowledge. Class is graded VERY fairly though, and that is what will save you. Lots of in class examples that did help with exams. He basically tells you what's on the tests and what to look for.

Comment:

Doesnt have time for you even though he has office hours. Course is tough and lectures are unhelpful as he explains as if you knew everything from the beginning, which didn't help in my case.

Comment:

He assumes that you know the material as well as he does. he takes shortcuts/skips important steps solving problems and never explains them. Office hours are nearly non existant. Communication skills on par with a stuttering 5th grader. He goes over only the most simple examples, the textbook really teaches the class.

Comment:

Decent lecturer, but he needs to get the lab organized better. The homework was good preparation for tests, but tests were hard. He lets you have a cheat sheet however. Generally a good professor.

Comment:

Lectures were not that useful except on days where he went through examples. There is not too much work associated with the class, and his tests are very fair. He lets you have "cheat sheets" for the tests... very helpful. He repeats himself a lot, but he could be a lot worse.

Comment:

A great lecturer/teacher. Reasonable to light work load, but every homework problem emphasizes a new concept, and prepares you well for tests. He has a true engineering perspective, and gives meaning to the math and shows you how to use physics to engineer new devices.

Good teacher but you MUST do your part and keep up the class. Tests almost exactly match the homework.

Comment:

His lecture blows everyone out of the water. He loves (literally) to confuse us out of our minds. The tests aren't as bad as his lecture. I wish i could circle and highlight my tests like i do my notes :-) He's condescending to undergrads.

Comment:

AVOID THIS PROFESSOR. Extremely unclear lectures, crap for notes, and couldn't care less about his students education. Obviously doesn't want to teach, only research. Only good quality, fair tester and gives good homework assignments.
