“Excellent course – Prof. Zekkos is one of the best instructors I’ve had at UM. Really excellent instructor – clear examples and addresses all students questions well. I especially enjoy how he connects his course topics to the real world”

“This was a great course. I feel like I have gained alot of knowledge from it. The instructor did an excellent job and I admire his passion for the course content and for teaching. His teaching style was very practice-oriented and I feel that this was very beneficial to the students. I also greatly appreciate the instructor’s willingness to help students outside of class with not only the course content, but more importantly career goals. I feel that the instructor has made a great impression on me and that I will benefit from this course and the instructor’s advice for years to come.I have no suggestions for improvement. Perhaps, however it would have been nice if the semester project were assigned a little bit earlier in the semester to allow students to think about it as they learn the course material.”

“The instructor did a great job of increasing my knowledge of the professional responsibilities of an engineer” “Professor Zekkos is the best professor i have had until now, the class is great and one of the few challenging courses in our department. My only recommendation is decreasing the workload and increasing the amount of critical thinking problems and case studies.”

“CEE 549 was the best course I took at the University of Michigan, overwhelmingly because of Professor Zekkos. His enthusiasm for and knowledge of the subject combined his interest in and care for his students’ education made this course engaging, practical, and very interesting. Professor Zekkos is bar none the best professor in the entire CEE department. Michigan is extremely lucky to have added such as asset to the department.”

“Excellent course!!! I found each and every lecture absolutely fascinating! I never enjoyed a class at UM as much as I did this one. Professor Zekkos was an excellent instructor. Always well prepared for class and answered all questions. The homework was for the most part reasonable difficulty. However I wish the homeworks were more design-orientated. For instance, given these parameters, design an landfill containment system etc. That would probably be my largest “issue” with the class, which isn’t really much of an issue. Once again, this was a great class – thank you for everything professor!”
