120A Mid lectures at best. Easy midterm but impossible final worth 40%. One of the problems we never once did anything related on a HW so no practice. I stg he picks HW problems via throwing at a dartboard, not whats covered in lecture. So many errors in notes, HW solutions, even exam questions. I feel like I barely learned anything. Underwhelming

A professor who tries his best but falls short in more fields than he succeeds. Lectures are jam packed with material in too short of a time frame that it feels like he's just regurgitating discombobulated information at you with little to no coherency. Assignments do not align with lectures and textbook felt close to useless. Bad at emails.

Helgeson probably gives the most homework of all the chemical engineering professors. Good notes, good lectures. You learn a lot, tests are more challenging than the other chem e professors.

Really nice guy. Lectures were awesome. Long tests and HW, but he is always willing to help everyone. He is by far my favorite professor.

Helgeson Round 2. Pretty good class. Organized notes. Answers questions promptly. Good luck to future classes!

Great guy, but gives so much homework. He's new though, so he'll probably get better. Good at explaining things, and you'll learn a lot. The class itself isn't hard, it's the workload that kills you.
