Reviews of professor Ian Ferguson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Ferguson is as much engaging as he is caring. His sense of humor keeps things interesting, and he cares enough to give great advice whenever you meet with him. From learning important mindsets for my goals and aspirations to the skills I'll need as a future engineer, Dr. Ferguson teaches and interacts well in and out his classes.

EE5001-LEDs for Illumination. Learned lots of stuffs I did not know before. I had heard about LEDs, but never knew how they are made, operate, and why they are being currently used vastly. Our final project helped us to share our design and model with our university's Solar Decathlon team, which was amazing and awesome :) Highly recommended course!

Dr. Ferguson really cares about the success of his students outside as well as inside the classroom. In his class, the workload is reasonable. There is only one written exam, presentations, a weekly homework assignment, and contests. He teaches in a way that relates the material back to real world applications that really ensures it Makes sense.

Dr. Ferguson is one of the two best professors I had during my time at Missouri S&T. He focuses the material on skills that we will actually be using as engineers after college and he genuinely cares about the success of his students. There was no penalty to your grade for making mistakes in his class as long as you took the time to fix them.
