Quality 3/5Difficulty 4/5
Nice guy but disorganized class and he is difficult to reach. Late to emails and seemed too busy for you during office hours sometimes. Tests are (mostly) not representative of the homeworks, quizzes, or lecture problems done in class. It seemed like nothing I studied showed up on the exams. Exams are clearly reused, contain errors, and are unclear

Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
This class was hard as it was fluid mechanics, but Professor Pujara organized his lectures and exams so that they felt manageable. We were allowed a page of notes on the exam which helped a lot. Be prepared to write notes very quickly or just take them after class because while they are not super difficult, he covers a lot of material per lecture.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Professor Pujara is about as good as you will get in the Engineering department. He is very good at explaining things in a slow and precise manner. The subject is difficult but he does a good job of keeping things interesting and helping people through it. Very good engineering professor and his tests are fair.
