Prof: Maryam Tabeshian / Fall 2025
Aug 17, 2026
I took this class as a bird, and if you are interested in going into physics or astrophysics, I'd recommend it. But the workload was intense due to the biweekly quizzes, assignments, weekly problems, and projects. You also had to watch online lessons before attending the week's lectures, or you wouldn't fully understand the material (these online lessons are around 45 minutes long). As someone who's not interested in pursuing physics or astrophysics, I had to put way too much work into the class. But if you're really interested in this subject, it can be rewarding.
There were no midterms, which was nice. But the workload was intense to make up for it. She will also drop your lowest quiz and project.
Dr. Maryam Tabeshian is an amazing professor who cares deeply about her students and ensures they understand the material. Even though I'm not a physics person, she made the topics very interesting and simple to understand.
If you were taking this course as an easy bird, I'd think again. But all in all, I think the class is rewarding.
