Michael Durst

The class covers a variety of topics, serving as the lab class for many of the 200 level material. The labs were generally interesting, and the professor did a good job providing support. The lab reports had a learning curve, but he drops the lowest grade, allowing for some wiggle room.

lab sections each week covered a different topic from the other 200 level physics courses, and were generally equally doable and enjoyable. lab reports due each week had a steep learning curve, the first few felt challenging, but after that they just felt extremely tedious more than anything.

The labs were interesting and pertinent to what we study in the physics major. The paper was a fantastic learning experience and I felt accomplished when I completed it. Professor Durst is one of the most accommodating professors on campus. He records all the lectures and posts them online, and he is flexible as long as students demonstrate an effort. He takes great care to help his students. This makes learning easier and more enjoyable for everyone. Bravo Prof Durst!
