- Definitely you need to revise the course. (My suggestion: remove the course from the student portal)» (Poor)
- It is the most awful course i"ve taken. No engagement from teachers. The teacher didn"t want to see us. He had poor answers when he finally did. And activating the foreign students was impossible. It was like they didn"t want to work?» (Poor)
- Very little info before course start, too big group and not much learning because of this, too easy (even if that benefits me). Still, it"s always tricky with projects.» (Poor)
- The course provided me ith the opportunity to learn indepth operational issues of large power network using ARISTO» (Excellent)
