Best professor in the ECE department imo, engaging lecturer and great at answering questions would highly recommend Exams are a bit too easy relative to the content but the provided paper readings are very interesting and challenging

Josh is enthusiastic and a great Prof. The course itself requires reading papers and working on a semester-long project but his exams are fairly straightforward. Take a class with him if given a chance.

Professor Josh is a great instructor! He plans his class time well and doesn't cram too much in one lecture. The material is relevant and he delivers it really well. He gives good feedback and keeps the class engaging with light humor sprinkled here and there. Overall, a solid Prof. 10/10 would take another architecture course with him!
