Such a nice lady. She genuinely wants you to learn everything and bends over backwards to make sure you learn it. I've never had a professor this committed to teaching.

Sumita tries to be helpful but expects full devotion to her class. Her teaching needs work, which may get better once she uses the structure of the book. A brilliant woman in her field of nano-work but very arrogant and difficult to talk to.

Pros: Nice/ not boring/ enthusiastic/ FAT curve Cons: Poor lectures, writes an equation and side tracks with some random story. The homework is very hard/long and lectures don't help you much with understanding the material. Download a fluids textbook and study it hard if you want to do well on the tests

Very nice person, very helpful. Makes herself very accessible inside and outside of office hrs. Wants you to succeed. Pretty awful lecturer though, and confuses people (only to clear up said confusion later by smothering you with assistance). homework is tough, but thought-provoking. Tests are reasonable. Final was hard.

She is really devoted to the subject and is good at making you excited about it, but the lectures are quite stressed and often based on the idea "you should already know this...". The homework is extensive and too often just about finding the right formula (not too rewarding). If you're interested in the field and don't have a too pressing schedule

Good professor, great person. She learns everyone's name the first day and interfaces the class with facebook. Her lectures are clear and she is happy to clear up any confusion. She is willing to sacrifice her time to help you whenever you need it.
