Michael Galczynski ENES100A Expecting an A Anonymous 09/04/2024	Cool dude, I had him last semester. It's hard to fail this class and he's extremely entertaining. I loved finally getting hands-on experience.
Brian Danielak ENES100A Expecting an A Anonymous 12/17/2022	Dr. Danielak is an amazing professor who shows dedication in helping his student exceed ENES100. It is a pretty demanding course but he makes it bearable such as extending some deadlines espeically milestone six and not taking too many points off for not getting the signatures for completing objectives. Regarding propulsion mechanics and math related to electronics, it is mainly self learning but Dr. Danielak is somewhat lenient in the grading of the physics.
Michael Galczynski ENES100A Expecting an A KennethSwindell07 05/17/2022	Professor Mike is probably the best professor I've ever taken or will ever take again! Compared to other ENES100 professors he's in another universe. Super funny, super helpful and understanding. Really pushes students to interact with each other and strive for excellence. 10/10 !
Michael Galczynski ENES100A Expecting an A Anonymous 05/17/2022	Mike is a stellar professor. For anyone who doesn't know what the course is about, you build a vehicles to do various missions and compete against all the section. His sections this year took the top 3 highest scoring spots, which they did last year as well. The reason his sections do well is an extremely good professor and really values his students success. Mike makes class extremely entertaining and is extremely laid back.
Michael Galczynski ENES100A Expecting a B+ Anonymous 05/11/2022	If you are taking ENES100, take him. He was so much better than every other professor. He stripped the course down to the essential assignments and content. He goes out of his way to improve the quality of his course and assignments, he even recorded an exhilarating YouTube lecture series (subscribe to Michael Galczynski). The only complaint I can have about him is that you can tell that he is a bit full of himself which can get a bit old at times, but he does truly back up his ego with an excellent course and excellent teaching.
Isabel Lloyd ENES100A Expecting an A Anonymous 12/25/2021	Lloyd takes a more hands off approach and is one of worst professors you could take this class with. Unsurprisingly, noone in Lloyd's section this semester did great on the OTV project. The flipped classroom approach gives your boring and old videos and don't teach you much. The TA, Gerald, was chill though.
Brian Danielak ENES100A Expecting an A+ Anonymous 05/21/2021	ENES100 simply does not work online, but that's not Dr. D's fault. He's a really nice guy and he tried his best with what he had, which was practically nothing. He was somewhat disorganized and the class felt like difficult busywork the whole semester, but I really don't blame him. He's such a sweet and caring guy, it's pretty hard not to like him.
Brian Danielak ENES100A Expecting an A Anonymous 05/17/2021	I would say he’s fine for getting past this course, but there are a few problems. He was a chill and kind professor who tried his best with the online environment. However, I felt he was somewhat disorganized during lectures. Sometimes, we did assignment that were on the course schedule and were told the next day that they weren’t being submitted for a grade and that he meant to tell the class before that we did not have to do it. He tried his best to assist with Arduino coding during the second half the the semester, but most of the time the students were left to do it on their own with the assistance of google. This class was not enjoyable near the end as he put us in breakout rooms in Zoom for the majority of classes.
Brian Danielak ENES100A Expecting an A+ Anonymous 05/10/2021	Dr. D is very disorganized and the class as a whole was on and off. We always seemed to run into issues with deadlines and communication. I visited him during office hours and he helped some, but he really doesn't have a lot of energy. I feel like I was never heard in the class. We were left to teach ourselves most of the knowledge, specifically with Arduino, which isn't ideal since I have little to no experience with it. This was an online class for me and I can firmly say they did not transition the projects well to the virtual environment. We had group projects that almost demanded us to need to be physically together. The class was just very messy.

Michael Galczynski ENES100A Expecting a B+ Anonymous 05/05/2018	I have Mike right now for ENES100 and he is a great guy. His lectures are very entertaining and fun. There is never a dull moment. He also gives great advice and seems to care about his students. Only negative is that he makes his own homework and they are very difficult.
