Good guy, very fair professor.

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
The lectures were rather dry, but the class was an easy A. The final was online, open-note and the quizzes were too. The lectures, lab, and homework did not correlate so that was very frustrating. Claudel is a nice guy though.

Dr. Claudel is kind and his lectures aren't too bad either. Lots of labs and homework but they're not terrible especially if you have prior knowledge of linear algebra and diff. eq. Both him and TAs are very helpful. Quizzes are open notes. Definitely one of the less stressful classes out there.

A nice guy. The class isn't necessarily hard, but the lectures and course material can be quite boring. There was a lot of homework and labs which become very repetitive and tedious. Had quizzes every other week that were not bad. He did provide drops for lowest homework, quiz, and lab which was very nice.

Claudel is a nice man but it is very easy to lose attention in his lecture because they are very dry. He is an easy grader as long as you put some effort into assignments.

I never went to class (because I couldn't understand a word he was saying), and my lab ta was absolute garbage (Hassan). There were like 11 labs and 5 homework yet only half of them counted for credit. Quizzes and final were online, and only 5/6 questions. Honestly, this class was not hard but go to office hours for help on the homework and labs.

Easy, but I didnt learn any matlab. Go to lecture and pay attention to the in-class example and you'll be fine on the quizzes. Go to office hours to get answers to the homework. For labs, pray your TA isn't Hassan bc I've never had such disdain for a TA before. Useless. Rude. Unclear. I really hated him. But Claudel is fine.

He's super lenient and chill. Boring lectures don't make him fun, but his French accent is honestly half the reason I was there. The TA's gave me a headache over grading discrepancies and organization. He has plenty of extra credit, no tests.
