Reviews of professor Sriram Chellappan

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Undoubtedly the best professor for this class. He is forgiving with the more difficult topics and is also very good at explaining the materials. The grade is heavily based on the assignments he gives, which takes the load off of the exams too.

Pretty chill class, easy going professor, boring material but he really did a great job I felt pretty lucky we got him

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He tries to help you since 50% of the grade depends on homeworks. The course material is hard, and he understands that and doesn't expect you to become an expert in Automata within a semester. His exams and homework are challenging but not too difficult. 10/10 would definitely recommend taking this professor!

I thought Automata will be too abstract was my liking. Boy, was I wrong. Dr. Chellappan made this class so exciting. Crisp lectures, No PPT slides, Extensive board work and explanations. Tough, but challenging assignments. He made the material very current and relevant as well. Highly recommended.

This is the first class at USF my attendance was a 100%. It was because the professor was caring, lectures were fun and I understood the content well. Great professor

WORST PROFESSOR I'VE EVER HAD! Please, do not take this professor. He will not respond back to emails, he grades however he wants even with a rubric, he does not prepare you for tests and the tests make NO sense! He does not care whether students get a passing grade, that's obvious. His lectures also make no sense. Save yourself the trouble.
