Senior Seminar · Economics
Varies a lot depending on how the structure of the course changes; overall not high
Its a senior seminar so do the readings but if you can't, talk and participate. One paper 12-16 pages long on a topic of your choice.
She has a lot of passion which illuminated the course content and also was able to explain very complex subjects in simple terms that made it easy to understand; that being said I found the course as well as the prof slightly unorganized and unpredictable. The final paper is completely on ur own without any sort of formal guidance, and you are expected to have an idea of ur research topic from the moment of the first day of classes. But the grading is fair
I took Professor Andrew's senior seminar with only five other students. I would definitely recommend him. Seminar's aren't his forte but he knows how to make you think and how to make you ask questions. He's very well informed so if you have any questions he can either answer them or point you in the right direction. He would send out readings by email and we would try to read them but most of the time, if you haven't read them, you can still talk (of course, it should be relevant) and he appreciates that. The course tends to go toward a lecture unless you ask questions. but given all this, he recognizes you and appreciates what you have to say. Would definitely recommend this class. He's a very easy-going, well-read, and great prof.
