Comment:
My seniors told me that he is godfather of mechanical but i didn't come to know about him as he gives A grade to all those who submitted assignments before deadline and gave A+ to all those who submitted after deadline. I am unable to understand the basis of marking. Overall he is very good prof. very caring and knowledgable.

Awesome professor. Teaches from his own textbook. Doesn't believe in tests, instead gives assignments and a project which can be submitted a week after end of class. A real gem! Grades well too.

Great prof if you like easy courses and cut and paste level exams. If you like in-depth material coverage, challenging assignments or engaging classes, look elsewhere.

What are you guys all talking about. Oostie is a great man, but his courses could be a lot more in-depth. Just because he gives you all the equations, doesn't make him a good teacher. Take the course if you are a very fast writer/copier. You'll get 100% on the tests when you copy them line for lin

This man is a genius. Very nice prof. Makes it easy to do well and his classes are extremely interesting. He's an example for other faculty members. All other profs should learn 'How to teach' and 'How to be fair' from Dr. Oosthuizen

Very good professor. If every engineering prof was like him, I would have graduated with First Class Honours. Aerospace was one of my highest marks in my undergrad. He's very experienced and very intelligent. Teaches very well and gives fair exams.
