Cool College Classes
 
For those that dont know, Im a senior mech engineering student at rowan university. I have taken a lot of boring classes, some interesting, and a few awesome. I posted one of my clinic class build projects on here. I also had a cool machine design class where I had to build an Air compressor from scratch, and a primitive battle bot.

Today I started a class called "Design for X", and my professor is the guy who invented power wheels, along with about 15 other well known toys. Seems like its going to be another fun project based class.

Anyone else have any cool classes?

My Pharm Biotechnology course has potential but if today is any representation of what's to come that's out the window.

I got nada.

Spent two and half hours tonight learning Kirchoff's laws... sad part was the class did not understand...

System dynamics is going to suck, complex numbers suck miserably. j^2 = -1...


Oh and Stats + prob will be aweeeessomme.

I enjoyed my internal combustion engine course my junior year of mech eng. Pretty much the class I most enjoyed.

I have enjoyed most of my political and Law classes so far here. I consider that stuff really fun.

honestly...i love my major..and every class i take within my major i find cool.

but at kean we have a class called death in perspective, that people just go to kean to take the class its been noted in the paper. i believe its a psychology course and just goes over pretty much the cycle of death, the professor even takes field trips to local morgues

i honestly cant think of any classes that have inspired me or made me looking forward to going... but i have met 4 or 5 professors in my 4.5 years that i know i plan on keeping in touch with well past graduation
