This isn't a review for the professor, E96 classes are taught by students. The professor only comes in on the first day and drops in the last day to listen to your presentations.

I thought the class was great! I really enjoyed making an electrocardiogram. There are only a few easy assignments the first few weeks and then you work on an extension project. There are clear presentations with slides that go over the technical side of the project and the theory behind it. It's really not hard at all, more people should take this class.

Obligatory not a review for the professor. Would definitely recommend taking this class! It's not much of a time or work investment, and I learned a lot about Arduinos and general electrical engineering stuff. You can pretty much do anything that you want for the final extension project as long as it's interesting, so you can pick something you're comfortable with or something you want to learn more about for it. The students leading the class were very understanding and helpful.

Professor Schmidt is only listed as the professor because there needs to be a professor listed for the class. Never seen him in my life. This class is taught by undergrad peers (which is a huge plus, and is better than any professor teaching due to the nature of the class). Projects are interesting, but the pace is reaaaaaly slow for the first 5 weeks and then ramps up near the end. You'll get to build a working ECG device which is actually pretty incredible if you think about it. The final project is making an enhanced ECG in some way; this is a group project. I HIGHLY recommend that your group contains: 1 CS major/someone good at coding, at LEAST 1 EE major/someone who is good with circuits, and either an ME major or another EE major who is good with CAD and 3D modeling/fabrication. All of these components were necessary to create the final project. As a CS major myself, there is no way I could have done it alone without the knowledge of my more hardware-oriented peers.
