Reviews of professor Richard Nauert

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Online classes were kinda dull since there wasn't a lot of in-class participation/interaction. Easy to grasp content (similar stuff to psychology.) There was 1 midterm and 1 final, a three-part group project, and 4 discussion boards all semester.

Grading consisted of 5 discussion boards, 1 midterm, 1 final, and a 10 pg policy paper you have all semester to complete. Grading criteria was very clear and attendance was not mandatory (took class online) although you should attend/watch the recorded lecture because the exams are mostly stuff covered in class. Keep up with writing the paper!!

This class was tough, but I liked Dr. Nauert overall. However, his lectures aren't the most exciting, and it wasn't always clear what we needed to know for quizzes and tests.

I absolutely love Dr. Nauert! GO TO OFFICE HOURS. He will tell you what topics are on the quizzes and explain them if you don't understand. A very "here's what you need to know" kinda guy. He's also just fun to talk to in general. 4 quizzes, 5 discussion boards, 1 midterm and 1 final, and a research paper the whole semester. Keep up with content!

Dr. Nauert's class is what got me to like public health. I went in thinking it would be a boring class on policy, but his stories, enthusiasm, and care for each student made class engaging. He is a fair grader with reasonable expectations for everyone. The more you participate, the more you'll like his class.  He is definitely old-fashioned.

Really unengaging lecturer. He reads along textbook slide decks and just chimes in with random anecdotes for an hour and a half. He is the only professor that teaches this course though :(
