Anyone taken CHE 361 or BME 393? Or other TE suggestions? 1 point, 2 comments

u/itokunikuni: “Can't find any course reviews for these. I'm in Nano, but looking for interesting TEs. Ideally courses that are fairly easy to get above 80 in as well. Alternatively, if anyone has any suggestions for engineering TEs that are interesting or easy, that would be great! …”

u/ab_zillaa: “BME 393 is only offered in the winter term fyi. Course was fine (Parsin is a wonderful teacher and great person overall). However, the lab is a LOT of work imo. …”
