His lectures are quite engaging, and he himself is very approachable. The class itself is not that hard except that the final project is very rushed. The one exam he had was easy as long as you kept your surface-level knowledge on all the things introduced in the class.

He is so sweet, and one of the most smiley and positive people I have ever met.

Very clear assignment instructions and grading rubrics. Most of the classes are taught by TAs (only lecture by professor), but he occasionally pops in here and there to sections and out-of-class worktimes, and is always very pleasant. Lectures are entertaining and keep your attention. Would definitely recommend!

This dude is awesome. Truly cares about teaching engineering and has a clear passion for it. Super nice to talk to about anything and is always helpful and wants you to succeed. Never seen him without a smile on his face. Just do your work on time and you shouldn't struggle.

Graham is just an awesome guy. He really cares about his students and their learning. Despite how busy he is, he routinely checks in on labs to see how things are going and he is very accessible outside of class and on Piazza. The class is a good amount of work and I wouldn't say its easy, but everything we learned will certainly help you in ME.
