Only 2 tests - mid-term and Final. 2 major papers. Stickler about APA-style. Will take off significantly if you do not format papers strictly by APA. Other than that, you will have no problem making a high grade. Very responsive in emails. More or less self-taught. You will need to read the textbook chapters required for the exams.

I follow his guidelines and did great on my research paper. Make sure you do as he asked on the paper, you will be fine. He requires less essay to write than other professors; but he does make sure that you have a good understanding of the research approachs and materials.

Very good class to take in your first semester of the MBA program. It is very time intensive, but he does everything he can to keep you on top of your work. Make sure to write all papers according to APA format and you will be fine. Two multiple choice question test aren't too bad, use the powerpoints provided and study definitions.

Comment:
I took him for a Business Research class during my graduate degree. I thought he was a good prof. The class is fairly easy, two papers and two tests. He goes over everything on the test in class and the papers are pretty easy as long as you know APA. He doesn't mess around about the APA format. I would def. recommend him.

He is OK, but not the best at all. He tries so hard to make the subject hard! He is not generous in markes at all so A is hard to get.

Dr. E is a nice professor. His teaching makes a research class easier to understand. He reviews the text before exam, memorize the reviewed text and class notes, and you'll be fine for exams. The research paper is the hardest part, prepare earlier and don't be shy to ask him any questions should help you get through it.

BEST BA prof here! Online summer2 2009 course-very fast paced, but able to keep up with weekly readings, discussion postings and successfully write 2 papers (lit review & full research paper) on topic of my choosing. Research, write and cite well, and you will succeed. Take this course first grad semester as very relevant for future research docs.

Comment:
Thought course would be killer with long papers, but wasn't. Basically 2 version of the same paper. You have freedom to pick research topic. He inspired me to learn a new skill and now I'm interested in Business research as a career! Study the book chapters verbatim but not too difficult exams. Got an A and didn't expect it.

Very fast paced for a summer class: 2 tests, 2 papers, 2 chapters/week of discussion board questions to post/respond to. High volume, but not difficult, per se. Just keep up at all times. Triple check your papers for proper APA style.

Very Good professor for all, yet still a bit under-challenging. I would have liked more projects, but it was a 4 week course. Also, technology (i.e. slide projector) was out of date, but the message still came across. I would have liked to see more modern uses of business research in practice.

Not difficult if you have a brain. Put in some effort, get your A, and move on. Nice guy teaching a rather dull subject. Always willing to help. Follow his guidelines and you'll be fine.

Wonderful teacher. Paper intensive (you will get sick of being stuck at your keyboard), but not unrealistic. Dr. Engish is a nice prof, a funny guy, but he is dead serious about his standards and they are high.
