Reviews of professor Chris Rossbach

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Took CS 378, seriously enjoyed both the projects and the class. Chris is very passionate and has both deep knowledge and the ability to teach it. I feel that this challenging class successfully helped me develop strong intuitions and lasting knowledge of concurrent systems, even when advanced topics were occasionally over my head.

Super nice professor and he's an alright lecturer. But lectures usually have too much content and he jumps from one topic to another very quickly every class. Overall topics and the flow of the course feel VERY disorganized and random and there's no solid sense of what part of systems we're dealing with at any given point. Labs are HARD

Very good professor. Constantly making dad jokes. Very friendly and usually available outside of class. Has deep knowledge in the material he's teaching. His slides are made with lots of pictures and animations, which makes it easy to follow. Material can be quite hard.
