Cool College Classes
For those that dont know, Im a senior mech engineering student at rowan university. I have taken a lot of boring classes, some interesting, and a few awesome. I posted one of my clinic class build projects on here. I also had a cool machine design class where I had to build an Air compressor from scratch, and a primitive battle bot.
Today I started a class called "Design for X", and my professor is the guy who invented power wheels, along with about 15 other well known toys. Seems like its going to be another fun project based class.
Anyone else have any cool classes?

My Pharm Biotechnology course has potential but if today is any representation of what's to come that's out the window.

I have enjoyed most of my political and Law classes so far here. I consider that stuff really fun.

honestly...i love my major..and every class i take within my major i find cool.
but at kean we have a class called death in perspective, that people just go to kean to take the class its been noted in the paper. i believe its a psychology course and just goes over pretty much the cycle of death, the professor even takes field trips to local morgues
