Doesn't matter what class, everyone should take a class with Redekopp. He is, without a doubt, the best professor at USC. You will learn more than you ever wanted to learn, and he is just an awesome professor. If you put in the work, you can definitely get a good grade. Redekopp is so awesome, that I go out of my way to take every class he teaches
EE-357
I guess there are already plenty of comments saying "best professor at USC". I will have to agree with that. He brings energy to the whole class, explains things concisely and precisely. HW and Labs can be a little tricky sometimes, but they really help students learn the materials well
CSCI101
Definitely the best professor at USC! I don't know what more can a student expect from a professor! He's clear, interesting, challenging, patient, approachable and humorous. And for those who may wanna know, he's really handsome!!!
CSCI101
Mark Redekopp is awesome. Not only is he clear and easy to understand, but he's also very friendly and down to earth. He manages to take even the most difficult concepts of CS and EE and make them fun and easy to grasp. Viterbi should clone him! Just like somebody said earlier though, if there's a Redekopp class available, TAKE IT.
EE457
Excellent professor! Explained the concepts well and really took an interest in student learning. Didn't overwhelm you with work either, but still provided enough to understand the material and practice. Also didn't blatantly prefer grad students, and understood best how to convey ideas to undergrads, while still providing us with a challenge.
EE356
Why are you even reading these comments? No matter the class, GO REGISTER WITH REDEKOPP! He's the best teacher at USC (that I've had). So helpful, nice, knows a ton about everything, and will look into problems you have that he doesn't know the answer to. Love this guy. People think he is "intense," but they're just used to lazy professors.
CSCI101
Good professor, but a bit extreme. Covered all of the 101 material and then some, and was way ahead of the other 101 classes. He's occasionally helpful during office hours, but his TA was more efficient. Teaching style was more like "here's the assignment, you're on your own". Not the prof you want if you're just testing the waters of CS.
EE101
My first EE class, I was once again impressed by his teaching style- always gives second chances after bad tests to everyone, super fair, awesome explanations, and of course, entertaining but challenging. Perfect course.
EE357
One of if not the best professor at USC, definitely take every class that you can with him over other professors, explains everything completely and always willing to go over it until everyone understands
CS100
Known to be the best professor in the engineering school, and he really is. Very friendly and teaches difficult topics clear and easy to understand. I wish he taught more CS courses!
CS100
This was the first year this course was offered. Redekopp seemed to be the man behind all the class projects/assignments. EVERYTHING we did was valuable and interesting. We had coding assignments on so many advanced topics for an intro course: parallelism, robotics, graphics, social networks/tree sorts. Very valuable, and very well-taught.
EE101
I have never had a teacher explain things so clearly. He makes the most boring aspects of the course interesting, and is always friendly and willing to help during office hours. I'm going out of my way to postpone EE 357 a semester just to take it with Redekopp!
CSCI100
Amazing teacher! Most people will agree he is the best USC has to offer. He is extremely knowledgeable, encouraging, and interesting. Not only does he teach well, he is extremely likeable. Take his classes if you can.
EE101
I just transferred from a CC and Mark is the only instructor I had my first semester that taught with the quality one would expect from an instructor at USC, considering the costs. He's fast, but precise and clear. He does not waste time trying to make u feel like an idiot if u do not understand something; he actually works with u and helps u.Props
CSCI100
For those confused, CSCI499 = CSCI100. Same class. This teacher is very clear, very helpful, young, and knows what he is talking about. He is very available after class, and his projects were fun and practical. Good use of technology in the course. Most with no prior experience did fine.. and the optional book was very useful. Easy enough mid/final
CSCI499
For someone with NO prior programming experience, the class was definitely a challenge (he moved through topics kind of quickly), but if you go to office hours he's super helpful. Will spend time explaining it to you until you get it. Really approachable. AWESOME professor. Definitely recommend him.
CS499
This class isn't easy, but Redekopp makes an effort to help everyone in the class get the grades. Approachable, and always willing to answer stupid questions.
CSCI100
Good teacher, but can sometimes be unreasonable with extensions, 10% per day off (harsh for a compsci class), better than most with e-mails, but still not perfect. TAs were pretty good, but lab wasn't required anyways, so I never went. Overall, I definitely recommend him. While I don't think he's as good as some other people, he's better than most.
