BME 201
Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Dr. P is one of the best professors I've ever had. I had the pleasure of having him as my advisor for 2 semesters on top of BME 201 and he truly cares so deeply about all of his students. He can be tough on you at times but it comes from the desire for his students to succeed!

Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Professor Puccinelli was a really great professor as he clearly explained the fundamental biomaterials concepts for out group's bone graft project and in introducing the equipment we'd use in the teaching lab.
