Reading the earlier review below I can understand the frustration of my colleague about the school's financial priorities. However, I have been able to enjoy excellent instruction and coursework in Oceanography, AI/Robotics, and Digital Signal Processing. I am specializing in sub-sea robotics and have been receiving a very well-rounded education in mechanical eng., electrical eng., computer sci., and oceanography. I have found that the department is very eager to support your learning if it is on your own initiative. I have unfortunately been too busy to play an active role in any of the research headed by the chair, so I cannot validate or reject any of the claims by the earlier post. There is very little funding for the department from the school which might also be a cause for the dissatisfaction. Sounds to me like a simple case of misunderstanding…
