The course would improve if there were more lessons on energy policy, average cost pricing, and energy system modeling. Students also recommend more practical and creative projects/lessons. Prospective students should be prepared to spend lots of time with some very chal enging homework assignments, and should have a good math background to take this course.

The best aspects of this course were the chal enging but rewarding assignments, energy modeling, and an engaged and knowledgeable instructor.

However, many students cited the heavy workload and the time spent on economics as the worst aspects of the course.

Some students felt that the studies were hard to understand which made student presentations difficult. The instructor was often late or at times absent from the class, and there were limited opportunities for feedback. Suggestions for improvement included having open discussion led by the instructor, creating deadlines to work towards writing a shorter final paper, and having more opportunities for feedback. Prospective students should have a strong background in mathematics and be prepared to lead discussion and lecture once a semester. Students interested in hydrology are encouraged to meet with the instructor prior to leading discussion or giving lecture.
