CollegeHes a little disorganized, but the material is easy enough it doesn't mater. One of many GOATs in the ChemE department.
Definitely one of the best and most captivating professors in chemical engineering. Professor Squires does a good job covering all the topics while keeping class moral high.
Professor Squires is a legend of the department. Although this class was difficult at times due to time intervals between homework, so some due diligence was required to learn the material, both course exams were fair and suited to the class content. He is an excellent mentor in chemical engineering and cares so deeply for his students.
Go to lecture and take notes and put in effort and you'll do well. Loose structure compared to other Engr courses but he cares about your interest in the subjects. There's no textbook used so going to class is what you need to do well on the final.
I quite liked Mukherjee's teaching style, but this class is incredibly slow and can be very uninteresting at times. He switched to a different lecturer after the midterm and I really did not like that at all. If he remained the lecturer the entire quarter I would have enjoyed the class significantly more.
I took him for Cosmetic Science and he was the BEST! He joked around with us and taught us the science behind making beauty products and then we actually made them ourselves. He created a really fun and relaxed environment. My only complaint is that the class wasn't long enough!
