Reviews of professor Brendan Boyd

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Boyd is a very easy going and relaxed prof. Although he's a tough grader, his feedback always helps. I appreciate him giving students a study 'cheat sheet' before the final. This helped me prepare for the exam and score high on it. He's a tough grader and tries his best to prep us for grad school. Attend his lectures and office hours to succeed.

Dr. Boyd is great. His class gives a great outline of the policy field and he's very helpful to those considering that path. There is a work-integrated learning project that you can stick on your resume and a term essay that you can write on whatever you want. He is also happy to help with both the essay and the group project.

Boyd is hard and it's a lot of reading but I learned a lot. Course on fleek.

Contrary to some of the other ratings, I found Dr. Boyd to be a great professor. The content was really not hard. However, he is a tough grader for a 100 level course. I took this course as an elective in my fourth year and received the lowest mark on a paper in my university career. I got the final grade I wanted but I was very confused by this.

Boyd Is very good a clear about what he wants, he's honest and willing to work with you to help increase your overall grade, and he makes sure you are well-prepared for the exams, His lectures provide a lot of additional content, If you attended class and read the textbook, you will do well. Also, an important note is to use headers in the essay.

Super nice guy but wow he is not good at teaching. Zero passion to teach and his lectures had nothing to do with the quizzes. Learned nothing in his classes and basically used the textbook to teach myself.
