I loved her class! The class was composed of three projects (a satellite, a launch vehicle, and a modified remote-control plane). Most of us came in the class knowing absolutely nothing. The projects were to build teamwork - even when we are absolutely confused by the work. The projects were hard, but it's impossible to get under an A in the class. She was very insightful but did not explain too much as to make students think on their own. Additionally, she is super nice and a happy person!

Professor Lisa Davids is a very kind professor, and I would highly recommend her for EGR101. The course was very engaging, as you got to work on both a launch vehicle project and build your very own glider out of provided materials. The homework provided outside of projects was not difficult, yet it was very applicable and useful for engineers.

Professor David's is a 10/10 professor. Her class is structured to include two main group projects. The Launch Vehicle Project is the first you will work on and is very group work heavy. The second project is the Glider Project and while still in a group, is much more individual work. David's is extremely knowledgeable and ALWAYS willing to help!

Prof. Davids is one of the best starts you could have to your Engineering degree, if you do the work and give your best effort. There are two big group projects, but also plenty of other opportunities for good grades and even extra credit.

Prof. Davids made it easy for students to tackle complicated projects in a methodical manner. course is centered around two projects both challenging, but she is very helpful and wants everyone to succeed. she has taught many upper-level classes, so she is very smart and grades on effort and the content of your work rather than the correct answer.

For EGR 101 Professor Davids was great. She is very nice and really cares. She is accessible outside of class and always makes sure everyone is aware of anything coming up or anytime she won't be in class. There are two major group projects which aren't difficult but take quite a lot of time.

Wonderful professor! Very caring and a good teacher, always available to help you. Lectures can be a bit dull but its just part of the fundamentals courses. Projects are tough but she makes them as simple and easy as possible, but you need to stay on top of them!! Projects are a big part of your grade but can be aced, just read that rubric!

EGR120 is a hard class. CATIA is a tough thing to learn, but Professor Davids is extremely skilled and experienced, and clearly knows her stuff. It's a high-effort class but if you put in the work your grade should not be an issue. I would recommend going to her office hours, especially if you are struggling on the Activities.

Professor Davids is AWESOME. I took her for both 120 and 101, and although you will have to do a lot of work, that's going to be true for any professor you take for this course. Professor Davids is very good at lecturing, she really knows her stuff and is extremely reachable and helpful if you need her during office hours as well. 10/10 fun class.

I had Professor Davids last semester for EGR101 and previously for EGR120. She was wonderful in both and they were by far my favorite classes. EGR101 is heavy on group projects due to the nature of the course, but it was the best group I ever worked with. She provides excellent feedback and really wants students to succeed.

I had Prof. Davids for EGR 120HON and 101HON. She's a really great professor. She knows her stuff, both knowledge and in industry. She's really nice and she's always happy to answer questions, class-related or not. The two projects we did gave me a good foundation for engineering in the future as well. I would absolutely take her again if I could.

I had Professor Davids for both EGR101HON and EGR120HON, and I cannot recommend her enough for both. She is a wealth of knowledge for other engineering concepts, classes, and professors at the University, and is gifted at explaining concepts, making her grading criteria for projects explicitly clear. Quick to respond to emails and canvas comments.

I completely bombed my first exam, but I went to her officer hours and talked to her about it and she was very kind and gave the entire section an opportunity for bonus. That's only one example of when she was super kind like that, I have quite a few more. Get to know her and you'll be perfectly fine.

Dr Davids is like having a mom as a professor, she is very caring for the progress of her students (only if you stay in contact with her and engage outside of class as well) She provided me with Calipers when I couldn't afford any and I borrowed a Fluid Mechanics textbook from her to read during the breaks. The M&M dispenser is GOATED.

I took Professor Davids for my HON 120 class, and she was amazing! Her lectures were clear, and you work through things with her in class for the best learning. She has a flexible schedule and is always happy to help! This class does have daily work and also a group project, but with proper communication with her, things go well!
