- he might be an extremely hard professor, but you will learn about commnications. He brings MIT quality of teaching to UF
- fairly interesting material,but that's no reason to fail everyone
- if commnications interests you take it w/ Heitman; if you want to take it just for an elective, take it w/ someone else
- Heitman does a very good job. Very mathmatically based compared to others
- Dr. Heitman is a great guy. But the exam is very difficult.
Some repersentative comments/advice from students that they would have liked to have prior to taking this course
only for those who seriously looking into communications
you will die unless you know math well. Way more math is involved in Heitman's class
take this class if you think you are good and are willing to suffer and learn
hard as hell but you are forced to learn a lot
