Good class making Robots. Very interesting way to get involved in design and programming as a First Year. Definitely recommend over most of the other ENGR classes. So far he has been a really easy grader, but the class lectures are kind of pointless.

He's a great guy. The lectures are kind of boring, and you'll get really tired of watching/evaluating your classmates' presentations, but the class is very easy if you just show up. You do a whole lot less work than other ENGR 1620 sections

He is such a nice guy and great to talk to, and easy grader if you complete the work, and he knows the subject of engineering inside and out. However, get some coffee before lecture because he talks very quietly and the lectures may be a lot of common sense but he tells you the important thingws based on what group work you must do,

Busy work! So many useless presentations and write ups. The lectures are useless and common sense stuff. I wish I could just skip class because it's boring and he is so monotone. I know he's a good EE professor, but he got stuck teaching the first year ENGR 162.

The robots are kind of fun-ish, but with the busy work design checkups it detracts from the fun factor. Working in the group in the lab actually designing the robot is good.

The homework labs from the Lab section also take too long. They aren't that hard once you learn the proper settings and buttons to push, but really MathCad sucks. Again, busywork.
