Great professor, It's clear he cares about doing a good job teaching. Would go out of my way to take classes taught by him. The projects were very challenging but supposedly that's getting revised for future semesters. No accent to worry about.

He is such a nice guy! This class was relatively difficult and I feel like I did not really learn anything in class. He is very helpful outside of class.

Lectures were crystal clear, and his priority was to make sure we understood the material. He also gave us a very reasonable amount of homework, understanding that we were on a compressed time schedule in the summer. Stayed after class to help, and is overall a kind person. It was a privilege to take him. One of the best profs I've ever had.

Dr. Tyagi is so clear and explains things very well. He has a huge amount of industry experience at Intel making him one of the best professors for a hardware class. He is so nice too!

I had Dr. Tyagi last semester for CSCE 312 and he is hands down the best professor I've ever had. His class is quite difficult but it is very rewarding. He explains concepts very clearly and is very articulate in the way he explains it. He also worked in the industry before becoming a professor so he understands how computing works in the industry.

Dr. Tyagi was the best professor I could've taken for CSCE 313. He was like a father to me, and helped my peers and I not only learn the fundamentals of computing, but to become better members of society. He is a great person and professor and I hope to take him again for a future course.

This man is by far the best professor you will likely ever have. He sincerely cares about you learning and if you visit him in office hours there is no reason why you can't make an A. There is a lot of work involved in the course but I recommend him over any other professor. It doesn't matter what times lectures or labs are you will not regret it.

I had Dr. Tyagi for CSCE312 for Fall 2017 and he has to be my favorite professor here at A&M so far. He cares a lot about his students and makes sure we learn the material on a fundamental level. He has a ton of industry experience and even worked at Intel on a chip. He understands the material well and can convey it likewise. I respect him greatly

Dr Tyagi is the best professor I've ever had hands down! He cares so much about the subject and his students! I hope I get the honor of having him for a future class some day!

I had the honor of having Dr. Tyagi for CSCE 312. He is inspirational, and cares about the students deeply. I aspire to be like him some day. His assignments are very challenging but they help understand the material.

Dr. Tyagi is amazing! His assignments are really tough but in the end you learn a lot from them. He is knowledgeable about the industry and led a division at Intel so he not only understands the material from the academic side, but also the business side. He is such a nice man and is very helpful during office hours. He is a great speaker too!

Dr. Tyagi is awesome! He has experience form working at Intel, and connects class materials to how they relate to in real industry. Extremely caring about student's understanding of the material, genuinely a great guy! The class itself is also very fascinating - you get to see exactly where software meets hardware at the lowest level!

Dr. Tyagi is awesome! He is such a great professor and teaches really well! The class is very hard but it is a well run class. I hope to have Dr. Tyagi in the future

Tyagi is hands down the best professor I've had. His class is really hard but if you work hard at it you will succeed. He is extremely caring about his students and will do his best to make sure they understand the material.

This guy definitely cares about your understanding of the material. He turned what was potentially a difficult/not fun course into one of my favorite CSCE courses so far. I would definitely recommend him for any class he teaches.

Tyagi is awesom! He understands the material and is super passionate about it! He makes you really excited to learn every time you come to class. I hope to have him again in the future!

Dr. Tyagi is the best professor I've ever had in my life. He cares so much about his students and it really is special to have had him as a professor.

Professor Tyagi is the best professor I've had. He cares so much about learning and has incredible industry experience. He knows exactly how to communicate complex topics well. The class is difficult, don't get me wrong, but the way he teaches it allows any student to work hard and receive an A.

Tyagi is the best professor I've ever had. He truly cares if his students know the material. He goes out of his way to make himself available to students. He knows how to teach and teaches whats going to be on the test. If material isn't in the lecture than it won't be on the test.

Dr. Tyagi is awesome! Really cares about his students and makes us better members of society. I hope to take him again in the future

After taking class with him, I'm convinced Tyagi is nothing short of an Indian version of Jesus Christ. He will go out of your way to help you with whatever you need, and that includes things like life advice as well, not just course material. If he's teaching, take his class, I guarantee that you'll enjoy every minute.

BEST PROFESSOR EVER. Really helpful outside of class and explains topics well. Clear and fair grading and overall great professor

An amazing professor. Explains concepts really well and is easily approachable during office hours. Just put in a decent amount of work and you should get an A, or at least be satisfied with the experience.

Dr. Tyagi is the best professor I've ever had! He cares deeply about his students and knows the material inside and out. I really hope he teaches other upper level classes so I can take him again!

Dr. Tyagi is a great professor, he strives to make his students succeed, and encourages them along the way. He is willing to help and answer questions. Overall, wonderful professor.

The kindest, most caring professor I've ever had the pleasure of taking. He gives you lots of resources to use and is more than happy to work with you outside of class. He really wants you to understand the material. I cannot stress how much he cares for his students. Take him, take him, take him!

I haven't seen a more caring professor than Dr. Tyagi till now. He really cares about his students. He also hosts a review session every week outside of the class time. I hope he teaches more upper level classes.

Dr. Tyagi is one of the best professors I've ever had. He clearly cares about the topic & student success. The class isn't particularly hard or easy, but it shouldn't be difficult to get an A if you show up to class and do the lab work.

One of the best profs I've ever had. Class was not difficult and he is an amazing guy.

Dr. Tyagi is one of the best professor I've ever taken a class with, but the class itself was very hard for me. If you want to do good in this class, attend Weekly Review Sessions by Dr. Tyagi, as they help you with the exams and general understanding of what's going on in the course. Sunday review sessions with Peer teachers can also be helpful.

A fantastic and caring human being. Tyagi is an easy prof, but he still manages to make you learn the material. Best Prof for 312 or 221 hands down.

He is the best professor I've had in my 4 years at Texas A&M. He puts in so much effort creating study material and easy-to-understand lessons. He goes above and beyond to help every single student and cares so much about the material. If you ever have the chance, TAKE HIS CLASS!!! Cannot speak highly enough of him, he will be your favorite prof!

A genuine human being and an amazing person beyond that. Very intelligent and extends his help/advice beyond just class. Take his class in a heartbeat.

They call him Indian Jesus for a reason. He's probably the best professor I've ever had. Amazing lectures, amazing course format, and an amazing man. I wish there were more professors like him.

Dr. Tyagi is a great professor! He was available at any time to talk at any time, especially when projects are due. Exams were difficult but fair but grading was very forgiving. One of the best professors in the department!

Awesome prof. Probably the best prof I have ever had in computer science here. Difficulty is reasonable and his instructions are clear. Lectures are asynchronous but he has clear lectures and practice questions which really help. He really does his best to make sure you understand the material.

His exams are hard, but the projects are pretty easy so don't mess up on those. Don't be stupid and try to copy other people's work at the beginning of the class because later he'll go through your work and make sure that it's unique or whatever. Tyagi truly cares about his good students and that means he's not afraid to root out the bad ones.

Dr. Tyagi made an incredibly boring subject fascinating with a variety of tools: choosing a uniquely practical curriculum over the usual book, drawing on his experience at Intel and being very easy to approach for help during and outside lecture. He is a big part of why I didn't quit the major and ended up becoming a software engineer.

This review will be different than the others, I wont reiterate how great he is as a teacher. As a person, he Genuinely cares about his students, I seen him connecting with students from years back. He sees life in a different way and ALWAYS holds a smile in his face. Besides textbook, i learnt how to be positive in life from him.

Dr. Tyagi is a fantastic professor, my only issue is that the exams are much more difficult when compared to the rest of the assignments given in the class, so it felt very difficult to become prepared for one of his exams. Since the exam averages were lower than normal he did give us some extra credit opportunities as a result of this.

Dr. Tyagi is an incredible professor and it is truly a privilege to learn from such a practiced educator. The curriculum he uses is fun and practical. Take Dr. Tyagi if you can, you will not regret it. The only thing wrong with the class was that the exams were far too difficult for the 50 minutes we were given to take them (and in general).

Hands down one of the best professors I have ever had at A&M! Offered a lot of extra credit opportunities. The teaching staff too was very helpful on Programming Assignments and encouraged students to participate. The only problem faced was that the midterm and final were difficult to complete under 50 minutes.

Tyagi is very nice, caring professor. He's passionate about teaching and genuinely wants his students to learn. I found his lectures very informative but also dry and long. Projects are worth most of your grade and the exams were difficult since we were given little time. He offers a lot of extra credit and only curves the final grade if necessary.

Dr. Tyagi is one of the kindest professors I have ever had the pleasure of interacting with. That said, CSCE 313 was the hardest class I have taken in college so far. I learned a lot, but please, do not take this professor if you are not up for the challenge. Otherwise, you will leave his class with a deep understanding of the course material.

Took a seminar course with Dr.Tyagi and had a great experience. He is caring and accommodating and it is abundantly clear how much value he places on the students. Great Prof!

All you do is show up to the zoom meetings and take an attendance quiz after. Guaranteed A, take him for 181 if you can. He would bring in speakers for the meetings, and it would always be interested stuff about the tech industry.

It is already well-established that Dr. Tyagi is an incredible professor. Last semester, I took his 312 class and it was honestly a disaster (for a variety of reasons, I believe). At the end of last semester, I emailed him with some suggestions and critiques and he actually implemented some of them in the 313 class. Not many teachers do this. A+!

Super caring and easy going professor. As long as you attend class and do the quizzes this class is an easy A. He does count attendance through zoom so if you skip class you will not get credit. The class talks about interesting lectures though and has no homework. Tyagi is one of the nicest and best profs I've had so I would defintely recommend.

He was a nice teacher and the class was super easy. He tried his best to engage with the class to make it more enjoyable such as scheduling lectures on topics that students enjoyed. Basically just a participation grade. Just take a short quiz after a lecture for credit.

Super easy, just take the lecture quizzes and go to as many weekly lectures as you can. Tyagi is the best prof ever!

The tests are kinda hard. His lectures are great despite them being online and prerecorded. He explains things in very simple ways which makes difficult topics very understandable. It's almost like he remembers what it's like to not already have a PhD in his field... This is something many other engineering professors have seemingly forgotten.

I took this class asynchronously and the material was difficult but the lecture videos were pretty good. Best advice is to stay on top of your stuff, if you fall behind it can be really hard to catch up as the assignments definitely get progressively harder as the semester goes on.

I mean are we serious about this guys? Tyagi is simply the greatest. Come on. Stop playing these games. Get off rate my professor and register for his section as soon as possible. Turned in the wrong assignment at least 3 times for the few major assignments this class has. Other professors? Zero. Tyagi? 105. Understanding and empathetic to us.

He will value you for sharing your perspective, as it really helps him make the class better. For my part, as a General Engineer who had a not so great start to college, but still wants to major in computer science, I've found that the class has helped me pick the brains of advisors as it relates to what I need for a successful ETAM.

Prof. Tyagi is an outstanding educator who cares about his students' success. He has a deep understanding of the subject and is able to explain complex concepts in a way that is easy to understand. He is also a kind and compassionate person. He creates a supportive learning environment and is always willing to help his students in any way he can.

Tyagi put in the work, put in the hours. For EVERY TOPIC (there were nearly 25 of them), there were several lecture videos, notes, a slideshow, a condensed summary, optional practice problems, solutions to those problems, and a video walk-through of the solutions. Constantly engaging with students on Teams. Night and day compared to Lupoli. W prof.

Taking CSCE 181 with Dr. Tyagi was a very inspirational experience as students were exposed to the many unique fields within computing. Dr. Tyagi worked very hard to bring qualified speakers to the class and always motivated the class to ask questions and learn more. Dr. Tyagi himself is extremely qualified and can really mentor his students.

The best structured class I've ever taken. The entire class uses a bottom-up approach where everything builds on top of each other. Around 1-2 assignments per week. Just watch the lecture videos and you'll be set. He offers extra credit on everything if you turn it in early so I didn't even have to attempt the final to keep an A!

Very chill, very sweet, and very likable.

The Zoom meetings are gold! It's basically just a Twitch chat that gets super hype when he does something, it's awesome!

HE IS AWESOME CHAT

He is really understanding and very nice. He conducts the class quite well and overall made the environment very welcoming

W Professor

Cares for his students and wants you to do well

This professor is really nice. He really cares about his students, and he wants students to actually learn the subject.

Great prof who actually cares about his students.

Great professor, no homework, just attendance for a 1 hour class once a week.

No assignments or tests, purely attendance based. Class is basically a fun TED talk about computing.

Great prof who actually cares about his students. Reads every question in the chat and makes sure to help everyone in need.

Literally only have to show up to the zoom meeting, nothing else. No homework, no test, just attendance. And he is cool, the zoom feels like a twitch stream.

I wrote this review on the 1st day!!! No assignments literally just go to class and sit in the chat, its like a twitch stream! Do pay attention tho to be respectfull!!

Very casual class. Get to learn about all different aspects of Computer Science.

He is very cool

Great class, great professor, great speakers. Everything is so interesting, take this class!

Amazing and very interesting class. Attendance isn't mandatory, it's just online webinars where experts come and talk about different CS topics, pretty interesting if you like the topics being talked about. All you have to do is pass the two quizzes throughout the semester and you can just review the slides which have all the answers.

Very solid dude. Tyagi is very sweet and is passionate about what he's teaching. There definitely are some tough concepts to understand but he uses great analogies to help. Personally, the course didn't get too difficult until LE5/P5, but the concepts build on each other so try to stay on top of it.

Overall, great professor. Cares about his students, clear course expectations. Lectures are dry. Some projects were hard but office hours were helpful, and you get extra credit for submitting early. Class practise problems were not like practise exam questions. But the exam style is really similar to the practise exam so just understand that.

Tyagi the goat

Lots of lecture and lab videos, so catching up was easy if you missed lecture. Course content was hard, but Tyagi and the TA made it as painless as possible. Lots of extra credit available on homeworks, clear deadlines and grades based entirely off of test cases given to you.

Very informative course, and very easy grading - you just had to show up in the zoom 1 or 2 times a week with camera off and mic muted for an A. I missed a couple lectures and was borderline on an A, and I was able to write a summary of a missed lecture and get points back, so I would say its very forgiving. Overall great experience!

Thought the class was well-organized and assignments were pretty straightforward despite being busy. Tyagi is awesome for real

Tyagi is one of the best profs in the department. He teaches 221 very well, is super understanding, and a very caring prof. Take him for any class he offers.

This is by far the best professor to take for 221. The lecture portion was completely online but the labs were in person. The programming assignments and lab exercises do take quite a bit of time, but the test cases are given so you know what you will get when you turn them in (not including the report). Also the "exams" are open note and are easy.

Online lectures, in person lab. Programming assignments and lab exercises can take time, but they give the testing script. Lectures are thorough and lab is a great time to ask TAs for help. Turning in programming assignments before a certain date can give 3% extra credit. For exams, there is a coding and a canvas exam and both are open note.

I loved 221 with Tyagi; it was insightful and I came out of the class feeling like I learned something. However, while the content was simple, there were a lot of assignments. Especially in the second half of the semester, the class moves fast. Take advantage of the incentive dates for extra credit, but you should be fine if you work hard.

I took his summer 312 and it was genuinely a great experience. His sections always fill up during the semester and I understand why. He was very accommodating when stuff came up and the TA's were decently generous with grading. His expectations were very clear and you get bonus points if you submit assignments a couple days before the deadline.

Tyagi is the goat. 181 is not really much of a class, it's more of a seminar. Guest speakers every class and it's usually pretty interesting. 5 question quizzes over the lecture, 2 attempts but you should be able to get a 100 on the first attempt even if you did not pay attention to the lecture at all. Very easy

Great prof and great class learnt a lot from all the guests some even inspired me. Take this class whenever you can, possibly freshman year.

312 with Tyagi was an absolute joy. My only critique is I wish we learned more about x86 architecture, as that's something that interests me personally. The projects were really fun, and they were all quite easy if you watched the lectures (except for one project, which was a nice challenge.) Tyagi is an amazing prof and you should always take him.

Dr. Tyagi is a brilliant, kind, and well-loved professor. For 181, he was a gem and I am truly honored to have taken his course. He's incredibly receptive to feedback and made sure everyone got grades they were happy with. Always take his class. Esteemed as well, worked at Intel for many many years on chips!

Professor Tyagi is a wonderful person. He will meet with you to help and his course content/structure is amazing.

Dr. Tyaagi was so skibidi. The class is just graded on attendance every week to the Zoom meeting and a quiz that's due each Friday based on the topic from that week. just show up to class and pay attention to the presentation. should be an easy A

Easy A class with interesting guest speakers. Just show up to the Zoom sessions and you're good. Unstuck study was a great supplement for reviewing the slides. Overall a chill and rewarding experience!

The best CS prof at tamu, take him for any class.

Not much to say; made the class really easy, was very clear on assignments and deadlines, great lectures as well. Definitely take him for 312.

Easy A and good videos, but the labs were a waste of time, and 75% of the class didn't go.

He's the best. Lectures are all recorded, and I would watch them at 2X speed. Labs were also recorded and usually were very helpful for projects. Example exams were also provided on the lab before the exam, which was held in lab. Final was online for us due to scheduling issues

This class was only graded on attendance to the online zoom meeting once a week, no hw & no tests. Schedule says we meet Tues & Thurs, but we only met on Tues each week. Super informative about current industry & different academic paths, a lot of guest lecturers too. Would recommend, & I'm taking him next semester too for CSCE 312

He is so nice. This class was graded purely on attendance and the class was on zoom once a week. There were no assignments or tests at all. If you missed classes you could just write an essay about the topic discussed in the class you missed to get full credit back. Genuinely the lightest class you will ever take.
