Dr. Inglot is the best professor I have ever had. He is extremely knowledgable on the topics he teaches, and is more than willing to help students if they're having trouble with the material. He encourages class discussion, and really cares about his students. Meet with him in his office hours and he will be a great help to you.

One of the hardest classes I have ever taken in my life. I definitely learned a lot from it, and professor Inglot is extremely knowledgeable. If you're ready to have a super tough semester, take a class with him.

Dr. Inglot is extremely knowledgable about international affairs and I'm glad that he was my professor. Sometimes he can get a little too into what he loves, and miss track of time, but he's respectable and a great professor.

For those who know the subject, the class is hard work. For those who don't know the subject, the class is hard work. That's to be expected though, since it's a 400 level class. It's a lot of reading and lecturing. Be prepared to type a lot of papers and look for a lot of sources. Overall, it's a good class, it's just going to take work.

Comment:

One of the best professors i have ever have. Not extremely amazing in any specific category, but exceptional at everything. Well organized, well spoken, gives excellent feedback and wants his students to learn. Is a hard grader, however i believe he does that to better transform his students for the better. Would definitely enjoy taking again.

To do good on the assignments and test, a lot of researching and studying was required but all worth it in my opinion. He knows his stuff and is really passionate about it. He's been the biggest influence for me getting interested in politics!

Comment:

Tests and grading are hard. Well, everything is hard, but no matter how bad it gets, I can't say anything bad about Inglot. He's competent, very well-read and an expert in his field, and that's the most important thing of all. He can be hard to approach ( little intimidating/cold), but he wants his students to have the same passion he does.

Comment:

Where to start. a month into this class and wow. i have no clue whats going on. He will start lecture with random questions expecting us to know them. Its frustrating because this is how we get participation points. His lectures are so random. Only reason im still in the class is to see how hard his test is. Then I might drop it. He's really boring

Comment:

After having a flawless track record on my GPA, Dr Inglot issued me my very first C in a class. But I worked my butt off to earn that C, and a C from Inglot is an A in the real world. He's tough, and he will challenge you, and make you put actual work into your COLLEGE DEGREE, but if he isn't the best that MSU has to offer, idk who is!! Love him!

Comment:

I have been taking As throughout my time here until I took this professor. He does not know how to teach. I have noticed that if you have a point of your own and start a debate with him, he will discourage you so much and make you embarrassed in front of the whole class. Wish I had not taken this luke-warm guy and ended up with C. Never take him!

Best professor at MSU no competition. All this moaning is from students that slack and aren't prepared for a real college course. Read the textbook, listen and take extra notes during lecture and never skip class. Easy right.

Comment:

Disorganized lectures that offer no help for test. Requires out-of-class research on a myriad of topics if you actually want to understand course content. I am an A student I have never received a C in a poli sci class EVER until him. If you have a different interpretation on a subject, keep it to yourself for your own good. Hates poli sci are mino

Comment:

Inglot is the best professor at MSU. He is a very hard grader, yes, but this is because he expects a lot out of his students. If you work hard you will get a fair grade. He goes out of his way to help students and gives plenty of advice in paper-writing. His classes are very structured and his lectures clear. Best teacher! Don't miss out!

puts the sci back in poli sci... and keep a running list of the books and movies he suggests, they'll all be worth your while. Oh, and don't forget to ask about his personal experiences, especially when studying intelligence in U.S. foreign policy class.... great stories.

Plenty of knowledge and intelligence, but hard to communicate with if you have an opinion of your own, not matching his. It's his way or the highway!

Comment:

Dr. Inglot is a tough professor but very knowledgable. He will gladly assist students who ask for help and tries to explain things in a way that the class will understand. I would recommend taking his classes to people in the major who are prepared to work hard and learn alot.

Comment:

Presentations are extremely well organized. He has only a slight foreign accent, but is VERY easy to understand. This prof is as intelligent as they come, I don't know how MSU keeps him - could be teaching at any number of Ivy league schools.
