Comment:

He was a great professor, he definitely made you work for your grades, but grades fair, and really made you think about the process you were using while making a part in solidworks. There are also timed quizzes that are most of the time easy but there are a few that are on the harder side.

Comment:

If you're looking to better understand PLC's EMET 430 is great. Professor Muller really takes his time to give everyone attention and make sure everyone is up to date with each lesson. You're expected to allocate time for weekly labs, although Professor Muller is very accessible and ready to help. I strongly recommend his classes.

Great professor. The class subject can be difficult but the professor really breaks it down and is always willing to help! The class structure is easy to follow with lectures on the subjects then in-class group projects applying the subject matter. 10/10 would recommend taking a class with Professor Muller if you have the opportunity.

this is a great class for anyone interested in the automation or controls industry. It covers more of an industrial type of controls but the main topics transfer well to different control lines. Bruce is a great professor and is more than willing to help you succeed in his class

Professor Muller is a great professor who really knows PLC's. He cares about the topic and teaches it well. Professor Muller gives good lectures with valid information.

Professor Muller is a great teacher who gives you the information needed but encourages you to think at the same time. Very helpful and dedicated to his students in and outside of class. If you give effort and ask question you will learn and do fine in EGT 201.

Professor Muller is an excellent professor! Had him for EMET 430 and EGT 201. Very helpful and respectful towards students. I really enjoyed both of the classes I've had with him, and he's really easy to talk to. He is very willing to help outside of class as well. One of my favorite professors. I definitely recommend taking him!

Awesome professor! I highly recommend taking EGT 201 with him! You will get great feedback and learn a lot about SolidWorks. He genuinely cares about the success of his students and wants to make sure they get as much out of the class as possible. It is also nice that you do not have to buy a textbook for this class.

This course is challenging yet rewarding. Professor Muller prepares you to use 3D modeling in industry. This class is essential for the Senior Project. Professor Muller creates youtube videos that help you further develop your 3D modeling skills outside of the classroom. He is very helpful and will go the extra mile for you if you put in the effort

Comment:

EMET 430 is a tech elective that every EMET student should take. This course gave me the knowledge to land an entry level job as a controls engineer. Professor Muller is patient and genuinely cares about the students. He spends 8+ hours a week using his office hours to help students program. His lessons provide students with invaluable skills.

Great professor! Not the kind of guy to just give you the answer. He makes you think and work for it. If you miss class, you will most likely be behind. He's very fast-paced but not too fast. He has enjoyable lectures and the topics are definitely frustrating but nothing he won't help you understand.

Muller is beyond qualified to teach PLC programming and he is continuously teaching himself to make sure he is training his student the newest trends in the industry. This class is a fair amount of work and you cant miss many classes and keep up. You will learn more from it than most of the other classes in the major combined. My only complaint

Muller is incredibly knowledgeable and has an impressive background. His course is a fair amount of work and attendance is important. If you are looking for an easy A, this might not be the professor for you. That being said, I learned more about drafting and engineering processes from this class than in the rest of my major combined. If you do

Professor Muller is easily approachable and more than willing to help in any way he can. That being said, he will not give away answers. You will have to learn and pay attention in class. With this class attendance is key and he stresses that daily. He does an excellent job at teaching and keeping the class interesting. Muller is highly respected.

Comment:

Dr. Muller is very well versed in his CAD knowledge and is always helping those who are stuck. Expect short quizzes that check to see if you remember the steps needed for particular features. Homework is the same deal; a simple model submitted by a screenshot and you're well on your way to an A. All Exams are replaced with a final project.
