Comment:

He may as well just bring his mountain bike to class he talks about it so much. Pop quiz every other week. Monotone. Boring. Arrogant. Makes an easy class a hard class so he can feel acomplished like he actually deserves a salary. (which he does not)

Decent prof. He is very arrogant and annoying. Always talks in a condescending way and does not go over material needed for exams very well. Always fills class time with useless filler from his past.

Comment:

I had him for MY2100. I loved the Material and the classes were very interesting. Design Problems are pretty easy once you get the hang of them, but the exams (which the class was based on) were quite difficult. Homework problems were assigned but no credit was given. Helpful when ask questions.

Comment:

Good teacher. He knows what he is talking about and he is genuinely interested in it. He is great at relating what we are doing in class to the real world and showing us how we will be using it. Be sure to study for his exams and do the HW design probs.

Pretty boring and monotone, but decent teacher and pretty easy and fair. nothing much to say he is ok but i think that there is an easier or better prof for my 2100. he is not bad by any means though.

Awsome Teacher! All problems and previous exams are on his website. Even has lecture notes on site to. Can sometimes be a little hard to get questions answered. But hes always willing to help. Would definately take another course with him.

Lectures were thought provoking and also can be confusing. Taught the material pretty well. Not very helpful. Homework is easy. Tests kind of tough. Overall, He can be arrogant but is a descent teacher.

Comment:

Dr. Bruce was a great teacher, but seemed just a little stuck up. He would help if you asked for it, but it seemed like you were always intruding on something. But perhaps I was. I highly recommend his classes, very useful in the "real world" sense.

Dr. Bruce is the man. He really enthusiastic about everything. The class was really interesting. He proves that almost everthing can be related to coffee and bikes. Once again the guys awsome you should take one of his classes.
