Description
"Welcome to 3.091. My name is Donald Sadoway, and I'll be your lecturer this fall. We've got plenty of room here if you need to sit. You can sit up the steps and in the aisles. We'll get things sorted out in the next day or two. What I'd like to do today is to introduce myself, introduce the subject, introduce my plans. I have plans for you. I have plans for you called plans for learning because that's what it's all about. People if you're coming in now, you can sit up here, or you even can sit on the floor up here. It's one big happy family. So, let me begin by telling you that 3.091 is the most important subject that you will take at MIT..."

Reviews and comments:
EXCELLENT COURSE! I suggest that anybody wanting to be involved in any type of engineering.
Being a transportation explosives engineer, it is a GREAT refresher for Basic Chemistry and Solid State Chemistry. We have many mechanical engineers who have greatly improved their capabilities through this course. Lot's of mechanical guys and gals do not get much chemistry and this is a good way to build up your knowledge base. My background is electronic do I have little background in chemistry and agree with the professor and would like to see batteries improved to the point we can have effecient electric cars in our lifetimes.
Also, Great professor for lecturing. He may be egotistical like many professors, but he certainly doesn't use it during his lectures when teaching older dummies like me. Great course and GREAT LECTURES!
Due to my security clearances my first name is correct but my last name in both the name and e-mail is fictional just for the sake of safety due to terrorist threats to ammunition engineers. Please understand this and the reason.
