Winter 2017 - BE 180. It's a required class, but it is in need of major reforming. The professor seems like a nice person, but I think he uses Wu's slides from when Wu used to teach the class....and I'm not a fan of Wu's slides (I took 176 with him). The issue with the lectures is that you have a TON of details thrown at you and when it comes to the midterm and final, you are not sure what you need to know. In the end, it's about memorizing some statements and some random graphs without feeling like you actually LEARNED something. A simple study guide with what we need to know (with no tricks) would be nice! If this professor teaches the class, then he needs to make his OWN slides and give us the material we can actually USE and APPLY instead of giving us jargon. I will say that the TAs for this class were good, and this is just another example of how the TAs would teach the class better than the actual teacher (it was the same case for 176).
