Reviews of professor Pat Burnett

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I know ENGR114 isn't mandatory for most engineering students but everyone should take it; take it with Pat if you have the chance. he's a funny guy and a great teacher. At the end of this class, you will have leveled up your design skills a ton.

Take 101 with Pat. If you turn everything in you will get an A.

WARNING! WARNING!

If possible try to ovoid taking this professor for any classes above engineering 101. Often cannot answer students questions fully. When you do ask a question he answers all the questions you did not ask. There are daily quizzes to greet you anytime you walk into class. If you are two minutes late, attendance is docked. GLuck.

Expects students to learn at home and not in class. If you want to teach everything yourself and take quizes each class then take Pat.

Pat is a super fun guy and I enjoyed his class for the most part.Very unorganized and he often didn't really know himself what he wanted us to be doing. Extremely easy grader, walks around helping students on the midterm and final. His 'reading reflections' take ages to read through, that was the worst part. If you participate you'll get an A.

If you want to teach yourself in this horribly difficult dynamics class, take him. Definitely the worst professor at WCC.

You teach yourself in this course. 
I think he should understand that if students already know the information then why are they taking the class? He should try to teach them not to waste time. Most of his students end up retaking this class.

Pat's 101 is the best that Whatcom offers. tons of opportunities to learn how to use every tool in the lab and several challenging/engaging projects. Pat's main concern as that you're learning, so late work is excepted with a small loss of points. all in all, it's a pretty easy but extremely valuable class.

I took Pat's engineering 101 class and I enjoyed it a lot. I think Pat is a good teacher and he did a good job making this class a great intro to engineering and the field. The class was pretty easy but it was a 101 class and it was really focused on introducing people to engineering so I figured it would be like that. Overall I would recommend Pat

Pat is hands down one of the best teachers i've had. His classroom environment is very conducive to genuine learning and camaraderie. His 114 class is the most valuable class I have taken at Whatcom. It prepares you to design and make almost anything!
