He was a good lecturer, and his tests were not super hard. Super easy to talk to and ask questions, and was also very accessible outside of class, and would give points back on exams if you explained your reasoning. Homework was not long and helped to understand the content in more detail.ME2340 2026-05-07 01:20:40 +0000 UTC
Tests are harder compared to the assignments and assignments are longME6200 2021-12-24 02:28:55 +0000 UTC
Everything people are saying about tests is true they were long ash and hard ash (nice) but Moneesh himself is a pretty good professor. He's good at explaining the material and is very responsive and helpful outside of class.ME2340 2023-12-06 05:28:00 +0000 UTC
He gives excellent feedback and is willing to provide extra help. His helpful lecture slides are provided, but it is very necessary to attend lectures in order to understand all the necessary details. If you pay attention in class, though, exams and quizzes will be reasonable. He also provides study sessions prior to every midterm.ME2340 2023-05-05 16:50:45 +0000 UTC
Avoid at all costs. Tests are insanely long and brutal! Made what should be a relatively easy class extremely difficult. Take this course with another professor if you can.ME2340 2023-04-26 23:49:21 +0000 UTC
Professor is very knowledgeable on the subject and his slides are very organized for the class. He also cares about his students and will try to help you if you don't understand something. There is a textbook for this class, but I was able to learn the material from his slides and in-class explanations.ME2340 2021-05-10 21:39:13 +0000 UTC
Thought I would hate the class, but Moneesh made materials science really interesting. His slides are scary but he explains things very well. Homework is very easy and exams are reasonable. He is a fair grader and cares about his students. TAs for the lab section were mean though. They take off 10+ points for the smallest things in write-ups.ME2340 2021-04-23 20:26:55 +0000 UTC
Incredibly long midterms. Hard to finish them on time. Overall a tough graderME2340 2021-01-21 14:46:19 +0000 UTC
Quizzes and homeworks are fine. Midterms are ridiculously long and not reflective of the practice midterms. Is ok at teaching the material.ME2340 2020-11-16 14:11:43 +0000 UTC
Prof. Upmanyu is a passionate teacher who is great at teaching the assigned material as well as impressing why it is important. Lectures were informative and he made a point to answer any questions brought up. He is accessible out of class and was good at responding to emails. It is difficult to get an A (95), but he tries hard to help students.ME2340 2018-12-31 01:10:05 +0000 UTC
