Lectures are very dry and not as clear as they could be. We spent lots of time deriving equations rather than really learning the work. He is nice and was helpful during office hours, but he could not overcome the poor situation of taking Fluids in the Summer. Book was required, but it was a terrible black and white photocopy only made for NEUME3475 2018-11-01 21:07:49 +0000 UTC
Fluid Mechanics is only offered in the summer, which makes the class more challenging than it would be if it were in a full semester. Prof. Karimi's lectures can be boring, but the homework and his outside help are enough to be successful.ME2375 2016-11-30 10:56:27 +0000 UTC
