Dr.Briggs is an amazing professor. Admittedly, he does get somewhat off track in some of the lectures as he discusses automobiles or famous innovators within EE when you'd prefer he focus on the relevant material. Notwithstanding that, he is a great professor who cares more about the learning of his students than any other professor I have taken so far. He has a very wide breadth of knowledge ranging from advanced analog circuitry to embedded systems and digital signal processing.

Professor Briggs is super nice. He also is always around in lab to help on the group project which is challenging. Homework problems are sometimes impossible but the quizzes are fair. The final was easy. Labs take a long time.

Take this class with Briggs for sure. You have got to really mess up to get anything less than a B. There is a quiz every week and a lab the first four weeks, none of which are hard if you just do the practice problems. The final is easy as well. There is one five week project which will take up a good amount of time, but can be as hard or as easy as you want to make it. Positive experience.

Definitely take EE3 with Professor Briggs! Projects he introduced in class is super interesting and Professor Briggs taught material very clearly. He is also super patient and helpful!

Professor Briggs was awesome for this class, if you have the option of taking it with him, I'd highly recommend doing so. He was incredibly helpful via email with homework questions. Not that many professors feel like they really care about what they are teaching, but Briggs does. The quizzes throughout the quarter are pretty easy, as long as you do the homework problems, which were often tough (but never collected). The final was fair, and did not take the whole time. There is a project that you do in groups, and it is graded very generously. Overall, this class is an excellent introductory course and is not designed to scare you away. I wish more classes were like this.
