Comment:

Paul Swamidass is quite literally the worst teacher I have ever had. You will have dozens of group projects which all take hours to complete (the final project took 2 weeks) and you will never get full credit. He will never tell you what exactly he wants for grading but will grade you according to that anyways. Avoid at all costs!

Comment:

Dr. Swamidass is frustrating. We weren't taught the material we needed to complete our project. Don't bother buying the Product Design book, you'll never use it. Syllabus lists a ton of readings and assignments that we never did. Dr. S is a micro-manager and things have to be done EXACTLY the way he wants or he takes off points.

Comment:

This man is the most incorrigible professor I have ever had. He will tell you one thing one day and then another the next day. Stay away from this arrogant pompous man. Not only will you not learn and thing, you will waster your money and time and be totally frustrated.

Has no idea what he's talking about. He constantly has to throw his two cents in. Just go along with his crap and an A is coming.

TERRIBLE!!!! If your answer is right, he just puts it in different words and looks at you thru huge silver glasses. Wrote his own case study book, which was horrible and bookstores didnt carry it. Syllabus was very unclear. All we did was watch borin

In discussion, if you don't say _exactly_ what he wants to hear, he'll blow off your answer and give his ... even if they are the exact same thing, though worded differently.

Dr. Swamidass' parents should have never approved their own arranged marriage--the result was a genetic tragedy
