Comment:

Prof. Joseph is a great instructor. His lectures cover essential information and do not sidetrack. As someone who was weak in math I found his course very accessible and easy to follow (tried this course previously with another prof and dropped it). Do the assigned readings and practice exercises, and youre guaranteed a high grade.

My class was online due to COVID. Mindtap made it so easy to learn and grasp the concepts that I had consistent grades above 80%. I made a mistake on an assignment and lost 5% due to a mis-click. When I emailed the professor, I was terrified Id be scolded for my ignorance, but my professor praised me for my high goals and fixed it! Awesome guy!

His course is so organized and designed to help you, there's lots of chances to bring your grade up and his midterm and exam are so much easier than the assignments. He is always on schedule for lectures and his fill in the blank notes are useful for studying and doing the assignments. AMAZING.

Absolutely love the man, had a very dumb problem with mindtap that didn't let me submit a late assignment and he fixed my problem for me without any questions. Got him a lovely box of chocolates I hope he enjoyed :)

Comment:

The only reason you wouldn't pass the class is if you don't do the work. He sets his students up for success by offering lectures, online assignments, TA's and extra credit work (for low grades only). He provides fill in the blank class notes, so that the time flies by in class (these also make great study notes). I've taken two courses with him.

Comment:

Skipped many of his lectures, but they were heavily based on the textbook so could catch up on my own time. I found it really difficult to understand his lectures because he mumbles constantly and says things that make sense to him, not necessarily to the class. But as long as you finish all (online) assignments and review before exams it's easy.

Comment:

The best economics professor ever, very good, helpful, gives many sample exams and questions to prepare you for the midterm and final and replies to emails very quickly. Exams are normal, just study the slides and solve all the sample tests and you can pass easily. I would definitely recommend him.

I have never had a professor who cares as much for his students as Prof Joseph. He really wants every student to do well and understand the material. Always available to help and extremely understanding. Really nice guy and a great prof. I hated ECON, but if you have to take it, try to get Joseph if you can.

Really nice prof. Wants his students to succeed in this class. His notes are print out-fill in the blank type which makes it a lot easier. All you have to do is attend every class and study the notes. You'll get an A in this class. A lot of assignments though but they're not too bad. Really good prof overall. Would not recommend skipping classes

Troy's ECON class was one of the highlights of my university career. He was a very professional prof, and tried his best to reach out to students even though many of the classes were very large. He gave online quizzes which really helped me understand the material better.

I have had Troy Joseph for Econ 10003405. In both classes he gives amazing fill in the blank notes that makes note taking so much easier. Tests and assignments are fair and not overwhelming. He is always friendly and genuinely cares about how you are doing in the course. His classes can sometime be boring, but that has a lot to with content.

Comment:

Incredibly supportive teacher. Always available for office hours (even on weekends if before an exam), and makes time for every student despite large class sizes. Puts so much time into his class, and it is evident that he really cares about the students that come to him for help. I hate economics but had an incredibly positive experience with him.

Comment:

Honestly, Troy was one of the best professors I've had so far at Carleton. He wants his students to succeed at the highest level. You really don't have to make notes in his class since he provides them for you. But, here is the catch. You must attend class to get the notes since the notes are fill in the blank. Go to his classes and you'll be fine.

I have experience with almost every professor in the econ dept at Carleton. He is honestly one of the nicest and most caring professors ever. He will bend over backwards to help students and puts in insane amounts of energy to make sure they succeed. A real great professor and awesome human being.

He was amazing, crystal clear and very invested in making sure that his students succeeded. One of the best prof's I've had. He was so good, I declared a minor in economics and I was terrified of economics beforehand.
