CollegeJust finished circuits & mechatronics and got to say Marks is the best.
Marks is a great resource and helped with projects outside of the class.
Professor Marks seems to enjoy being the "tell it like it is" professor. His lectures are detailed and entertaining. Labs and homework are challenging, but smart and reasonable overall. Grading is slightly weird, but lenient. He clearly cares a lot about teaching, but his philosophies and bits can sometimes create difficulty for the wrong reasons.
Prof. Marks has high expectations for his students and is a stickler for detail in homework. This is justified, though - his lectures are excellent, and he expects students to really apply themselves to the subject matter.
Dr. Marks gives all his students the best experiences, and he really treated us as a true mechanical engineer in training. I highly recommend taking one of his classes as a beginning of study in the ME major.
Was a good class Marks was plenty helpful!
