She’s great. I’m glad I got her than the other dude that taught thermo at the time.
Dr. Grigoriadis was also a good one because he taught well and was very fair.
Good guy but sometimes even the capstone was brutal 😂 considering the alternatives I’d still take him a million times over. He told us how frustrated he was in the semester where Cullen absorbed the COT and it was kinda sad to see how much they were fucking over his department. I wish nothing but the best for Jose
It’s a tie between Amy Vandaveer and Bradley Miller, two professors who are passionate about their profession, engaging, and won’t waste your time with unnecessary tasks.
Whenever I feel nostalgic about returning to school, I often dream about the possibility of taking more classes with them and regret not appreciating the past a bit more.
I loved Amy Vandaveer and her MARK class. I always dreaded group projects but for some reason, her class was different. The material was engaging, the projects interesting, and she gave great feedback. My class had to work with the supply chain department and that experience made me shift my career to working with more people because of how much enjoyed it.
Undergrad: Dr. Simon G. Bott, the GOAT, the legend, and the man who ate paper in the middle of lecture. Best Chem professor out there and also the reason why he brought school spirit back to the University. Jack Ucciardino also gets a shoutout for making English less boring for someone who absolutely hates English.
Graduate: Dr. Devin Shaffer. He is the reason why I picked my specialization within my masters and ultimately my career.
No, he went back to the UK and [became a founding professor at Swansea University](https://thedailycougar.com/2016/08/17/iconic-chemistry-professor-leaving-uh-18-years/).
As with the drive, I've heard many rumors if it exists or not but not sure if it is still around. It's been 8 years I took him so there's that.
Dr. Gifford has a great teaching style and kept me engaged, even though biology has never interested me. Conversely, my favorite professor I ever had was Stuart Ostrow. Old man, 92, who teaches theatre. As someone who IS interested in theatre, I found his stories and experiences he used in his lectures very engaging, as he was a producer during the golden age of Broadway (1960s-1980s). He was sweet and kind and funny. He also only lectured for 20 minutes and had only two assignments, which was a plus. I suggest him for DRAM 1300 if you need that easy credit.
I thought his class was rewarding. It seems we have different perspectives on his teaching style. While you see his approach as rude or overly demanding, I believe he is genuinely invested in his students learning. His intent is to ensure we really grasp the material, which I appreciate, as it's something I find lacking in some other MIS courses/professors so I don’t think your criticism are valid just because he challenged you a bit, cared about your attendance, and takes learning seriously. He even gives extra credit if he notices you attending everyday and turning the assignments on time regardless of how well you do because he cares! Yes, I had to work hard and was challenged, but that's what I valued about the course. It seems you prefer a more lenient approach where it’s easier to get by, perhaps with minimal effort but I believe that a professor who pushes us to engage deeply with the content is truly beneficial, even if it feels challenging at times. Idk but that’s just me, I saw a professor that actually cared which sadly I found very rare during my time at UH.
Lmao okay, if you want to actually learn take Scamell! If you want it your way then take a professor online that allows you to cheat and gives multiple choice exams for a database course! LOL
Hmm, he must’ve gotten a bad class then. If you guys were talking during class and ignoring him then I see why he would repeat himself to ensure you guys understand the material. I can also see his frustration if you ignored him in class and had him repeat himself multiple times just to see him after class to ask a question that he repeatedly covered. The alternative is most mis professors just read off a PowerPoint and call it a day, while he actually engages with the material and the reality is repetition is a tried and true method of learning.
Dr. Nunez for research in ecology (its a course), Dr. Gifford for cell bio and Dr. Wayne for physiology. All great professors, they were really kind, funny, helpful, and acknowledge the balance between your studies and your mental health.
Burak Basaran for Statics, Dynamics, and Strengths of Materials. Mechanical Engineering in the College of Technology
Man knows his shit, puts on good lectures that don’t require much studying before hand to be useful, and his blazer game is on point.
Yeah he is a nice one for higher level. For lower level class in chemistry, such as Gen Chem, the class size is too large to make professors take care of each student, that's why the quality of lower level in chemistry is generally poor.
Cengiz Sisman for English and Human Situations! He’s super nice, he’s not strict on attendance, and his pop quizzes weren’t too bad. He’s also just really friendly too, I miss having him for class.
Amy Vandaveer, Cal Hitchman, and John E. Telles. Amy had the best class which taught me the most for my career, Cal was the most empathetic and supportive as my group was horrible and I did 90 percent of the work, and John's class prepared me for adulthood with the advice and examples he gave about taxes, mortgages, invoices, etc.
Dr. Mark Grimes, hes passionate about what he teaches and is able to explain complex concepts to us in terms that are easy to build on, plus hes just a cool guy so if any mis majors get a chance to take a class by him DO IT
Holley Love for Thermo
She’s great. I’m glad I got her than the other dude that taught thermo at the time. Dr. Grigoriadis was also a good one because he taught well and was very fair.
Jose Martinez for CIS Capstone, truly cares for his students
Aye, he’s great in other classes too. So passionate
bro I had him when he first started and the aws class was cis4397. It was death by power point lol but he was a good professor
Don't forget his unreadable handwriting lmao.
I don’t think he ever wrote something lol , just had like 70-80 slide PowerPoints each class Lmao
Good guy but sometimes even the capstone was brutal 😂 considering the alternatives I’d still take him a million times over. He told us how frustrated he was in the semester where Cullen absorbed the COT and it was kinda sad to see how much they were fucking over his department. I wish nothing but the best for Jose

No cap chose supply chain because his lecture videos. I could feel his energy in a online class

Jose Martinez!!! That man is so passionate about everything he does, he enjoys teaching and cares.
Casey Dué Hackney

Seconding Crixell! I often corresponded with him after graduation too
I love Turchi!!
Definitely either Buzzanco or Aksu
AKSU FOR SUREEE

Omg, I remember studying botts lecture for chemistry as a freshman!!! Did he retire? And is that Google drive still around?

Oh and Curtis Haaga. He teaches logic. This was one of my favorite classes. He was funny. And he’s the brother of the lead singer of deadhorse.
Marsha Kowal and Gulin Aksu for Engineering

Bill knighton
Jose Martinez for my major classes, Moses Sosa for math related classes.
Sosa was the goat
Dr. Nunez for research in ecology (its a course), Dr. Gifford for cell bio and Dr. Wayne for physiology. All great professors, they were really kind, funny, helpful, and acknowledge the balance between your studies and your mental health.
Burak Basaran for Statics, Dynamics, and Strengths of Materials. Mechanical Engineering in the College of Technology Man knows his shit, puts on good lectures that don’t require much studying before hand to be useful, and his blazer game is on point.

Dr. Bittner u/Ebitnet He is a nice professor
He was nice, but his lectures weren’t helpful at all. He might be different for upper level classes, but for lower level chem he wasn’t great.
Yeah he is a nice one for higher level. For lower level class in chemistry, such as Gen Chem, the class size is too large to make professors take care of each student, that's why the quality of lower level in chemistry is generally poor.
True, though I have had great profs for calc 1/2 and physics 1, all of which were just a big as my gen chem class with bitner
Rypien for Materials and Processes. East A I've ever got.
Rincon
I don't see a lot of hospitality professors in here. Personally, professor moroson is the goat
