Fall 2020 - First off, Dr. Mohanty is a great teacher who emphasizes learning rather than grades. He provides a plethora of material to engage students and helps them learn, and he is incredibly understanding of the challenges presented by COVID 19 learning. He actually scanned in copies of the textbook to give out to students for free, something which I highly appreciated. Grading is extremely lenient. However, I would say that to those not taken other similar courses I would say the material is taught in a unnecessarily confusing way. I took AOS 104 which covers much of the same material, but in a clearer way. This does not mean that I wouldn't take this class again- I really like Dr. Mohanty!- I would just push for people unfamiliar to the topic to read up before class as not to get confused.

Definitely one of the easier civil engineering courses. Some of the topics are fairly difficult however exam problems are very similar to homework. He always provides example homework sets with solutions so there shouldn't be any difficulty completing any assignment or doing well in exams. He is also very generous with sheet sheets so you definitely have more than enough room for all your formulas. I recommend going over past exams and being familiar with homework problem procedures to do well overall in the class.
