Reviews of professor Jose Vasconcelos

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in Dr. V's class. He solidified my belief that Civil is the right engineering discipline for me. He genuinely cares about each of his students, and is hilarious. He is super easy to connect with and the exams are easy if you keep up with assignments and do them on your own. Looking forward to hydraulics!

Dr. V is a great professor. Fluids is hard but he is very passionate and wants his students to succeed. He holds a review session before each exam so be sure to go to them because they are a huge help.

Dr. V is a wonderful teacher, and is very passionate about Civil Engineering. His class was so fun to take, and was easily my favorite class all semester. He cares about his students and if accommodations are needed, he is very willing to assist. His lectures are very informative but not boring. 10/10 would recommend Dr. V!

Dr. V is a great professor for Hydraulics. While the course material can be difficult and boring at times, he was always able to present it in a clear and understandable way. He does a review before each quiz or exam which is extremely helpful. Also if you do the recommended problems he assigns, you can earn bonus points as well.

I love Dr. V! He is relatable, nice, and fair. I slacked off a little in the beginning and my grades reflected that. He makes the class interesting, and is lenient. Not a ton of work outside class. Tests are a little hard (only two tests) but assignments are not. Group project at the end is easy too.

Professor V is a great guy and really makes sure his students understand the criteria moving forward. It is kind of hard for an entry level class, but very doable if you put aside the time for his work. He and the TAs will work with you and are easy to ask questions to.
