Reviews of professor Bryan Bechard

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Easy class! If u grind, u can finish the class WEEKS early. Weekly 10 question quizzes, but everything is in the book so (Ctrl + F) or just read it because it's interesting. The book is super cheap and can be found online for free. 1 paper, but he graded for participation. 1 final project, also participation. Weekly discussion boards were easy A's

Registered for Cybersec. 395 but its crosslisted to 407(Digital forensics). Def easy class, can finish the whole class within 2 wks. 1 wk is even possible. Mid term and final are case study papers, 10 mod quizzes, 10 DB's forums and respond to 2 ppl the usual concept, and like 10 to 15 hands on labs which are honestly easy. Super easy A. TAKE!

The textbook, labs, and PLE content are very in-depth into the topic and after this course, I feel I could jump right into a career in digital forensics. The professor is engaging, friendly, and the course work is flexible. Can complete in a few weeks! I wish I wasn't graduating because I would absolutely love to take this professor again!

Hands down the best Digital Forensics professor at ODU. He is very lenient and understanding. If something is wrong, he'll accommodate or at least meet 50/50 with his students. Interesting class!

I loved this course. The labs were easy to follow and fun to do. The best part was this class is at your own pace, so everything is due at the end of the semester. I was able to work ahead in the beginning of the semester when some of my other classes were a bit slow which freed up time I needed studying for finals.

All I have to say is TAKE HIM!

At first this seems like one of the easiest professors out there. But then his finals and midterms are all translated in wingdings. So it requires you to spend forever decoding all of it only for the midterm to be creating a forensics lab from the ground up. Ridiculous assignment for a 400 level course. Would never take this class again

This is the second time having this professor. He is amazing. You can legit finish this class in a month or less. Always buy the book, read it, take notes. If you do you will past all the module quizzes. His midterm and final are papers, but they are so easy to do and posted in the beginning. He is now one of my favorite professors. Also very nice

I enjoyed Bechard's class. All assignments have no due date - as long as they're turned in by the end of the semester you will get credit for it. Lots of quizzes and discussion posts. Labs are straightforward and have step by step instructions for each one.
