This class has a lot of busywork, and I feel like it detracts from the project itself. Prepare to spend a lot more time than you'd like on progress reports and seminars of questionable value. The quality of your faculty advisor and client probably have more effect on your success in this course though.Rate My Professors ↗

351 with Dr. Cheadle wasn't bad at all. I really liked how everything was well organized. Considering how big this class is, I thought it would be messy; however, the professor and TA did a great job managing this class.Rate My Professors ↗

This is more of a comm B class than a senior design class. Nearly every company I've spoken to that works with this class is annoyed by how little every single group gets done because they end up spending all of their time writing reports specifically to how he wants and not on actually designing or building. Horrible class set up for thisRate My Professors ↗

Mike is one of the better educators I've encountered. He will take the time to walk you through any concepts that challenge you.Rate My Professors ↗

If you're taking this class online, I would consider rethinking that. It's a lot of work (especially the labs) and if you don't have the TA and Prof there to help it can be very frustrating. Tough class, but not impossibleRate My Professors ↗
