Comment:
Professor Contractor is very knowledgeable and I thought the readings and lectures were really interesting. The only grade is the Final, which is curved. If you read the book, complete and review the study questions, and pay attention when he tells you that something may be important, you should do well on the test.

Comment:
Very old school professor his method of teaching is boring and a lot of random story telling. Participation helps a lot. His course pack for the class is a collection of random articles and cases which will be tested on the exam. His book is hard to follow especially when it comes to computational sections so ask questions on those sections

Professor Contractor is very knowledgeable, with a lot of international experience, very connected to current world dinamics, and it makes econmonics super easy to understand. The lectures are great, however I would recommend to read them before. Take notes and come prepared with your working life examples. Reviews for Int Bus

Great prof over all. Learned a lot. Great knowledge of industry and bunch examples from the real life. No tests. 1 final only. Class is based on discussion. Yet neither participation nor attendance has weight to the final grade. Over all it was easy. Do don't do some reading, come to class sit there and leave. Take it if u dont like work

Comment:
Professor spoke very clearly and was funny. I did not like the way he grades however. Attendance is optional, however everything rides on the final exam. If you forget to study something and it's on the test, you may be screwed. I ended up with a B+ and studied hard and paid attention in every lecture. No cheat sheet or open book to remember.

Pay attention to his lectures and what he says will be on the exam. Read the hell out of the book, the heavy bullets only and know the foreign exchange problems and you will get an A.

Great professor! Only grading criteria - 1 final, which is supposedly curved heavily (haven't received grade yet, so supposedly). Final is directly from class discussion and readings which he points out from book. Overall, good class. Great for summer course (because course requires minimal work and is an easy B+, maybe even A).

Comment:
I took International Business. We used photocopied materials and a web site with more readings. It was hard to figure out what to read and it all seemed kind of jumbled at times. However, the lectures were clear and interesting with lots of class participation. There is only a final - no other grades. I don't know what I got yet but it seemed hard.

Great professor! Very helpfull, has lots of experience in the field, gave very good examples during class. His exams are quite tricky, but he also gives clues to what may appear in the exam during the course. Kept the class interactive and made it interesting.
