Very nice guy. Very clear and helpful. He was pretty busy so didn't have many office hours. I had him as a discussion leader in a class that blew (MSE250)

very good teacher. he was willing to work with you, and was very reasonable with time. he would stay until 1 in the morning to help you with your presentations, and was very dedicated to the students and their understanding of the material.

G-Dub, as he was affecionately known, was the best professor I have had at college. Even though it was a required course, he made it somewhat interesting. He was available anytime you needed him (by appointment) and his grading was extremely fair.

Nice guy, good hair, real boring.

I love him. Thats all i can say.

Felt he was a nice guy with a good sense of humor. I like how he stresses common sense.. Definitely got something out of this class, as lame as the idea of eng100 is

Excellent teacher. Very clear, uses good examples and demonstrations (stick of power). Nicest guy ever, remembers everybody's name, and says hello to me in the halls to this day. Will go to any ends to make sure that you understand the material.

He gives you every opportunity to get an A.

MOST BORING CLASS EVER, but not that impossible if you can manage to stay awake.

explained things well, but not so great with 1 on 1 help at times. He loves classical music and goes off on long tangents about it if it is brought up.

Very helpful and goofy as****

This is a pretty hard class, Wynarsky is very picky about EVERYTHING. But, he is also a good teacher: he has a good grasp on the material and explains things well. Also, he will love you if you go to office hours.

He's very enthusiastic about the material, even the things he hasn't had much experience (it seems) with, like electrical and magnetic properties. He assigns homework to reinforce the concepts, not ****work.

Very demanding of you as a student, but you are well rewarded. Tough but fair in his grading. Interesting class, definitely recommend it.

Wynarsky isn't the best teacher in the world, but I enjoyed him. I hated the class, but he taught it pretty well. As someone else said, go to office hours one day and just talk to him. He will love you for the rest of the class.

He's a unique guy, slightly weird...but very pleasant for the most part. He teaches well and will answer your question. As long as you follow directions and are very complete with your reports you will get a decent grade. (don't be sloppy!)

Depth of material closer to MSE 250 than a 100 level class, but he's a good prof that knows his stuff and is really enthusiastic.

Good Prof but sometimes hard to follow his lectures. He cares about his students, but his section of ENGIN100 is THE HARDEST of all of them. Sometimes lectures are boring, but not horrible

you NEVER want to meet this person EVER EVER for your professor. I don't know about other classes, but his eng100 is by far the hardest course ever. It DESTROYED all my ambition to become an engineer in my first semester of the college, and made my life miserable. His quality as a professor is however quite decent.

He went too much in depth for just a 100 level engineering class. His lectures aren't really organized and can be confusing. He is really boring.

He was a really good teacher. The class was difficult but I learned alot and he was very interesting and clear. He was a good teacher.

Wynarsky's lectures can get a little dry at times, but he is incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject material. His grading principles are, admittedly, rather harsh. However, I would still suggest listening to him, as he definitely has a lot to teach.

Dr. Wynarsky is very passionate about what he teaches and really cares about his students. If you spend the time to go to office hours and ask questions he will help you tremendously. He likes people to be on time and pay attention in class. His grading is a little tough, but he makes everything very clear and his exams are straighforward and cl

Wynarsky is BY FAR the best teacher I have had at U of M. He is VERY passionate about the material he teaches, and wants you to LEARN. Go to office hours, ASK QUESTIONS, he loves to help...and talk about running. Overall, a little eccentric, but a GREAT GREAT professor, take his section and you WILL learn ALOT.

Best prof ever! While the material can be a bit difficult and in depth, you can do well in exams if you pay attention in class and study hard. The main problem about this class is that it is largely group-based, so good luck to you if you get lazy groupmates...

one of the best professors ive had in college. wynarski is the reason i decided to declare material science because his love for the material rubs off on you.

Wynarsky was the toughest professor I've had in engineering. He teaches old school with lectures, handouts and does not believe in a curve grade. You must attend class because there is no ctools, he passes handouts, takes attendance in his head and exam is lecture material. Prepare to study hard, exams are very comprehensive and all memorization

Wynarsky is fantastic. He loves teaching and it shows. He's harsh, but you get way more out of the class that way. He really wants to prepare you well for the real world. Take him! You will work hard, but it's ABSOLUTELY worth it.

Good Professor, very articulate; loves what he teaches.

Amazing professor!! Even though the class is a lot of groupwork, he knows who is doing the work and who isn't, so his grading is extremely fair. One of the best engr 100 classes as far as I can tell. Tests are also very straightforward. Just show him that you're trying your hardest and he'll grade you accordingly.

Had him for Eng 100 and MSE 250. One of the best professors ive had at U of M. Very passionate about what he teaches and wants his students to actually learn the material as opposed to memorizing some facts. No curve, but the tests are fair. Not too hard to get an A if you attend lecture

Fantastic professor! Had to drop from MSE 250 with a different professor the previous semester - took the class again with Wynarsky and everything was crystal clear. Most of the information is given in lecture - little textbook usage. Does not grade on a curve. Believes in old-fashioned teaching methods. Would highly recommend.

He knows his stuff and wants you to understand it, but he has a stick up his ass and is completely full of himself.

I had him for Engr 100. A very traditional teacher. grades on a straight scale. But he does a great job explaning in lectures and is very passionate! he loves teaching and talking to students! not an easy A class, but u learn a lot and get a lot out of the class!

Wynarsky is a great prof! He explains the material and concepts extremely well which makes it easy to remember. He's not the best to answer questions during class, but will answer anything after. Grades straight scale, work intensive class, but the work is worth the reward.

He's still my favorite professor and i haven't had him since fall 2009. his class is hard, but it's not impossible to get an A in. a little sucking up won't hurt you at all... go to his office hours and he'll almost give you the answers straight up if you ask him the right way. i learned so much from him and can't wait to have him again for MSE 250

Professor Wynarsky was one of my favorite teachers at U of M so far. His lectures are completely clear, the exams are fair, and he is very enthusiastic about his teaching.

Professor Wynarsky is wonderful teacher. He is really passionate about what he teaches and that is evident in the time that he puts into the side and handouts for the class. If you come to class you should do well. Wynarsky Rocks!!!

Good professor, just goes through material very fast!... it's hard to catch everything he says and retain it for quizzes and exams.

I love Wynarsky as a Professor, but, in all honesty, his ENGR 100 class is quite difficult. It is not impossible to get an A, but you have to be willing to put in much effort, especially in the group work part. I am excited to have him for MSE250!!

George is the bomb, but don't call him that! :) Just make sure to go to class, pay attention, and take good notes, then you will be fine on the exams! I love him! :)

Very interesting guy. Can be a bit tightly wound about certain things. Hates when people come late or leave early, and is perfectly willing to call you out. Overall his ability to teach is very good though. Also, if you are 1 minute late the day homework is due, he will take it and mark it late without an EXCELLENT excuse. That's irritating.

He's a very interesting guy. His lectures are pretty boring but I enjoy the homework from this class. He's clear on exactly what he wants and if you follow his guidelines you'll do well. Definitely not an easy A unless you're willing to put in some time. Enjoyable class overall because of the material.

class based on 1000 pts and straight scale. meaning 100 pts buffer until you drop to a B+. Almost impossible, no matter what he tells you in the beginning of the course. Tech comm is VERY PICKY with instructions. expects you to devote your life to the course. Interesting class tho, learn a lot. decide for yourself-grade or little more education

Wyns is an amazing lecturer who covers all of the material on the exams very in depth. He basically does major exam problems during discussion. His exams are easy but class is not easy overall unless you are willing to work for the grade. Don't **** about taking his class unless you're willing to do work because he's an amazing teacher.

No doubt about it, a very tough grader. I would recommend getting getting Hildinger for the discussion. Wyna is great teacher and willing to help if you pursue it. He's a lil quirky with a unique brand of humor (that I like). I am taking MSE 250 with him next year without hesitation, If that tells you anything. Professionality is key to succeeding.

Wynarsky is a great professor. He really cares about the students and is passionate about the material. Tough grader, but if you put in the work there's not reason you can't get an A. Excited to take 220 with him in the Spring.

Excellent teacher, he really knows his stuff. However, he isn't very pleasant and doesn't show much respect for his students.

I really enjoyed most of his lectures, and the exams are fair. But tech com is graded way too rigorously in this class

Prof. Wynarsky is deceptively strong. And he has great hair.

Amazing professor.

He definitely knows the material and is passionate about the subject. He is a good professor, but not the nicest person. The tests are fair, but the tech com and presentations take a lot of time and effort.

Wynarsky is the man. I know some people will say that he is not the most considerate guy in the world, which is true, but he knows how to teach. Very clear from the beginning and always tells you what you need to know. Tests can be tough, but they are always fair. Has a great amount of knowledge and communicates it very well.

Forced into his 100 section because of my schedule. He is slightly eccentric and very strict on policies. Despite that, he is still one of the easiest people to learn from. He sets realistic expectations for his classes and has an enjoyable, goofy, sense of humor. Defiantly doesn't deserve a tough reputation. I hope he will be as good for MSE 250.

Strict class policies. Takes attendance, marks HW as late if not turned in right at the beginning of class. Lectures are fairly clear and the book is pretty good. However, he doesn't post much on CTools, so make sure to take great notes in class. Maybe sneak in a video camera and record lecture (he doesn't allow electronics). Overall, not bad.

He is an excellent lecturer and he has always answered my emails promptly. I really don't understand why some people dislike him. He writes fair exams and homework, he lays out policies clearly, and he wants to see his classes do well.

Absolutely amazing teacher!!! Very strict about homework due dates and attendance. Extremely into the subject and makes the class very enjoyable. Loved this class even though the subject did not initially interest me

Dr. Wynarsky is a great professor. He is strict, but he's a really great teacher. Make sure to take good notes in lecture because he sometimes puts random things from lecture on the exams. The class was tough, but it was definitely rewarding and he was a very fair grader.

This class is very hard, but very helpful. He's very fair, but the material is challenging. Take good notes, go to every class, and pay attention to detail and you should be okay. I felt like this class helped prepare me for the professional world very well.

Deceptively strong.

Awesome prof. If you go to every single lecture (like you should, I don't know why that's such an out of the ordinary demand) there's no reason you should get lower than a B. All tests/quizzes based off lectures and were fair. The textbook is pretty cool too. Learned a fair amount about materials as well. Would def recommend.

Wynarsky is the man. He'll call you out and make you look like a fool if you're sleeping. He teaches old school with transparencies and an overhead. He teaches Mechanics, Materials, Organic Chem, and Statistics all in one class. Everyone in the class gets the same grade in the B range. Difficult to get an A but you learn a lot. The Tech Comm sucks.

Best professor I've had at UM. Explains everything so clearly. Knowledgeable and wants you to understand. Strict: no cell phones, laptops, coming in late, leaving early. But the hardcore atmosphere benefits you. Pay attn in class: he drops hints daily of "This will be on the exam" and that EXACT thing WILL be on the exam. And he's got great hair!

He seems very quirky when you first meet him and a bit like a hardass, but he's not that bad. He very clearly defines his rules at the beginning and as long as you follow them he will be friendly and helpful to you. He gives you all the information you need in lecture and doesn't try to trick you on the exams.

Basically it all comes down to your group. If you're a decent student, you can scrape at least a B from individual assignments like tests and writing. If you get a good group, your grade is set but otherwise it's kinda hard to get a good grade since group workparticipation is more than half your grade. If you're group is even maybe bad, drop fast.

Really awesome, great teacher. Can't stress this enough though, you must show up to class and take excellent notes. You also must show up for discussion or you won't be able to do the homework's. You do all that yo should be able to get an A.

At first Dr. Wynarsky can be very intimidating. He's an old-school dude who will bump you down a full letter grade without hesitation if he sees your phone during lecture. He's very blunt with his opinions on work, and that will reflect in the grades he gives. Work hard though, and he will notice (and so will your grade). Really a good guy, though.

Dr. Wynarsky is extremely intimidating at first with his grading policy and the fact that he'll dock a letter grade if he sees your phone, however he is extremely fair with the content on his exams. He mentions over and over again that if you pay attention in lecture, his exams will reflect that.

George Wynarsky is intimidating at first and strict. He does not allow electronics during lecture. The project takes quite a bit of time but is manageable. Freshman like to complain about his ENGR 100 section but you will get more out of it than any other section. He cares about preparing you for the rest of college instead of babying you.

He gives you every resource necessary to succeed- if you put in the work, you'll get the grade.

This is one of my favorite teachers at Michigan. I would highly recommend taking any class that he teaches.

ProfWynarksy is a very intelligent professor that wants his students to learn. He is always willing to clarify information, and an all around nice guy to talk to. Most of the material in this class is group based, and individual grading is not given. Be prepared to work harder than any other Engr 100 section, but learn more than any other section.

Wynarsky is an excellent professor. Very straightforward, really cares that students learn the material. He is great with helping you prepare for presentations and gives excellent feedback.

Wynarsky is very clear and organized, he is always prepared for lecture. You will NOT pass if you skip his lectures. Absolutely no technology use in his class, but you need to be taking good notes anyways.

He's a great lecturer and explains materials pretty well(it's not super difficult either). The work load for this class is heavy. Be prepared to become an expert in your device and make the best presentations. He's intimidating sometimes but also a great guy to talk to outside of class. Also, he's got great hair and fashion sense.

Knows his stuff

Knows his stuff. Good at explaining technical information. Very particular about rules and policies.

Wynarksy knows his stuff and genuinely loves what he teaches. He is always full of energy and is excited to teach every lecture. I found the material pretty boring (it's a required course for my major, didn't choose to take it), but was still able to pay attention throughout because of Wynarsky's energy while lecturing.

He is by far my most favorite professor. He is very organized, and gives super good notes, which you can easily review when you do homework or study for exam. He is a tough grader but he is very clear in the beginning and gives helpful examples before homework is due. His sense of humor and sarcasm is a bonus.

Would I take again? Absolutely not. Did I learn a lot? Yes. Wynarsky is one of the strictest profs around. Have your phone out? Get a one letter deduction of grade. However, he is absolutely the best MSE 220/250 possible out of the current options (vs. Love or Yalisove). Very straightforward, simple presentation, just sit down and listen!

With Wynarsky it's simple. He wants you to learn and he will make you learn or you will suffer. He is old fashioned, but that's not a bad thing. His lectures will really make you into an engineer and you learn a lot of practical things from him. He is not tolerant of stupidity and stupid questions and he is exacting and meticulous.

He is somewhat old fashioned, but he genuinely cares about whether you learn the material or not. He puts in effort to make sure you understand and learn as much as possible, and he is accessible outside of class if you have doubts or any questions.

Old fashioned, but knows how to teach the material well. Good grading policy. No need to buy textbook, online pdf is free. He doesn't exactly have a matsci background, so if you want to ask a question that goes beyond the scope of the course, he won't know the answer.

Dr. Wynarsky is a great professor for those interested in materials science engineering or biomedical engineering. He goes through examples soundly and gives informative feedback on assignments and presentations. Although the course is not on a curve, the material isn't so hard that it needs to be. I would recommend his section of Engin100.

Dr. Wynarsky is the most effective lecturer I've had here in 3 semesters as far as his ability to make you learn the material without a ton of extra effort due to his crystal clear lectures. Exams mirror lectures and homework beautifully but are very specific, so take good notes. Great dry humor. Impeccable penmanship. Loves track and field.

I personally thought that Dr. Wynarsky was a great professor, definitely someone that really pushes you as a college freshman and shows that you're going to have to work hard here. He can be a really caring guy as long as you work hard to do the assignments correctly. Be smart and put in effort.

This guy is the scariest professor I ever had and it was Engineering 100. Forget everything you know because if you are cocky he will destroy you. He's an insane grader but he lays out everything you need to know for the projects, homework and tests. Prepare to not get an A. But, you will learn so much in the class.

He's a somewhat hard teacher, but if I had really paid attention towards the end I think I would have gotten an A. I originally didn't care for Prof. Wynarsky, but he's kind of funny and if you can get past his odd policies and rude mannerisms he's a solid teacher. Straightforward and if you show up and take good notes you'll get an A/A-.

The class is not hard if you are paired with a good group. However, it's a completely useless class. He teaches some physics in lecture, but all assignments to turn in are based on writing papers. The midterms are all physics based, but most grades are for your essay writing. Really strange, very boring, avoid taking this section of Eng 100!

I read some of the reviews and expected worse, but I really like this professor. He's excellent at lecturing, provides great conceptual examples, and is very straightforward with requirements. I liked his dry humor and I don't think he's rude, just has his own expectations. He's old school and tech challenged, but it's never compromised lecture.

Enjoyed the class. Prof. is pretty old school but the lectures were clear and engaging. He also is very passionate about the subject. Focused on qualitative questions rather than quantitative. Would highly recommend if youre interested in materials science.

He's very old school, but this isn't a bad thing at all. He really knows his stuff and his lectures are very good if you pay attention. Cool examples! Homework can easily be answered from lecture materials. The 3 exams and 3 quizzes are a time crunch but the questions are fair. I took it online so I don't know him personally.

Dr. Wynarsky is the best professor I have had yet. At first, I was extremely intimidated by him and was unsure of what to do, but then took advantage of his office hours. Getting to know him and taking the time to do the work is what will help you succeed in his courses. If you take the time to study and do your homework, you will be just fine.

I LOVE Wynarsky. Yes, he's strict and old-school and can come off blunt, but he makes it abundantly clear what you need to know from this class and what he expects of you, especially on exams. He goes out of his way to host extremely comprehensive exam review sessions, and he really does care about his students and helping them out

Great professor who cares a lot about material science. Gives great lectures and spends a lot of time outside of class for questions to make sure that students understand the material.
