Reviews of professor Michael Mahan

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Professor Mahan is very opinionated. He was very threatening and it seemed to me that once I was in his crossfire, I stayed in his crossfire.  He was very tough at grading and you need to follow the rubric to the T or he will take off points. Do not try to email him privately either. Nothing will get resolved.

In his class just doing the minimum is a C but he helps you learn the material well. I would take him again because even though he was a really tough grader is an excellent professor and really clear/organized coursework. Don't take this class if you are lazy, only take it if you want to learn a lot about management. I have a B+ so far for class.

He is very picky about using AI even if AI was not used.

I wish i went to this profile first, I repeat do not take this teacher all of the comments are very true. He is very inconsiderate and does not care about if a student has the knowledge learned or not. I feel like this teacher must have been some kind of Sargent before the way that he approaches everything. He never gives you the grade you deserve

Professor Mahan has been the most confusing teacher I have had with UMUC. The second week of assignments weren't given clear instructions as the Professor was unaware of what was going on himself. He expects you to spend 12-21 hours a week working on just his class. His grading sometimes don't make sense- question everything. Be prepared!

Dr. Mahan was tough, but he was invested in our success. He was very responsive and encouraged us to text him if we needed assistance. He gives detailed feedback, which is immensely helpful. I appreciated his teaching style.

This class was ridiculously time consuming. The assignments required a lot of time to read and then the projects required even more outside research. He is a tough grader. Discussions required 6 sources and then each reply required 4 more. So much work. Avoid at all costs.

This is my first year at UMGC after receiving my associate's at a community college. I have a total of 94/120 credits completed. Since starting college, he is the worst professor I have ever taken. I want to cry out of frustration. He is so inconsiderate, the worst grader, and does not care about his students. I had a 3.8 GPA and now a 1.6.

It's more of an English class, he is hypersensitive about punctuation and grammar.

Much research is required. You will lose points for every little mistake. Requires more time than any class I've ever taken. Run!!!
