His lectures focus mainly on the theory behind of fluid mechanics.. It's not essential that you memorize everything he tells you in lecture, but you should go because it saves you a lot of headaches when trying to understand the homework later. The TAs handle all the example problems, so make sure you go to discussion if you need help with the homework. He's a really nice professor who seems to genuinely like teaching and helping his students, so make sure to go to his office hours if you're having trouble. He tends to give much more homework than other professors, and it can be quite challenging at times. He lets us bring our books, notes, and homework to the exams. The midterm is difficult, but don't worry about your grades on the homework and midterm too much. Because Kavehpour pushes you so hard, you leave this class learning a lot and you'll end up getting a good grade if you try to really learn the material.

Hard professor. His lectures are basically derivations; he does no examples in class. The tests are tricky, not hard if you know whats going on, just really tricky. I bombed the midterm but he was nice enough to let me pass the class.
