Pros: No homework or exams. Only 1 solo midterm project report and 1 final group report and presentation. The two professors (Mark and Daniel) were some of the nicest professors I've had at UCLA and were always willing to help.

Cons: The slides aren't all that great and the instructions for the projects are usually unclear and confusing. Lectures are extremely dry and attendance is taken every class. The projects are usually pretty long too, and you'll need a windows PC to run the HydroCalc program.

Overall though, not too bad of a class. The final project was quite open-ended and left a lot of room for creativity. Also, the professors brought food to the final presentation day--that was really nice. Workload is quite manageable as long as you have people you can work with in the class.
