Collegeprobably the only ece prof to grade average as a C weekly homework, quizzes, two exams, plus a final project + report on incredibly novel topics very interesting material professor was unrelenting on his incredibly strict workload, and gave harsh grades; made work feel unworthwhile
Prof Sen makes the class a grind for the whole quarter, with weekly quizzes, weekly homework, midterm, final exam and a lengthy final project. He also applies a curve to the final grade, where the average is set to be a C+. Avoid this class if you prefer not to suffer, and like your gpa.
Course material is interesting, and the prof is a decent lecturer. The material posted online is next to useless in studying or completing the weekly homework, which was due Monday at 9pm for both a physical hand-in and code like somebody would be looking at the code at 9:01. Prof also refuses to accommodate for students or respond to emails.
All the grade come from programming assignments, which are fun and intense. Start early! Wonderful lectures.
