Had Nader for ECE 222 last semester and I was really worried after seeing his madgrades, but He ended up being one of the best professor's I've had in EE. His class is not easy, but if you go to lectures, do homework's, and study 2-4 hours for exams you should have no problem. Attending office hours is also very helpful!Rate My Professors ↗

Professor Bedhad's passion and enthusiasm for the course content really shows. He has a deep understanding of the concepts and is always willing to answer any extra questions. Do note that he is particular about students coming to lecture, but he is a good lecturer, and if you really listen and care about the content, you will enjoy them.Rate My Professors ↗

Professor Behdad was a joy to study under. While his class was difficult, his riveting lecture style and passion for electrodynamics made every lecture a joy to attend. He teaches with passion, and it is clear that he knows the subject very well. He was the highlight of my semester, and I hope to take more classes with him in the future.Rate My Professors ↗

Professor is very passionate, and definitely takes pride in knowing students on an individual level. Has improved (from what I've heard of in previous years at least) in terms of being really open to student suggestions, even gave us an extra 5% in the class for getting to a 90% response rate on the course eval.Rate My Professors ↗

Tests were unnecessarily difficult. Almost half the class dropped after the first averages on the exams were around 40%. Most of the grade is based on test scores which are not curved. Test questions were much more difficult than assigned homework problems. There was no review and no posted review for the exams other than one past exam.Rate My Professors ↗

Very difficult exams, no curve. Much worse grade distribution then other profs in the department.Rate My Professors ↗
