Reviews of professor Douglas Selent

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
If Doug leaves Platteville, the CSSE department will truly suffer. Doug and Bassam are by far the best professors in the department. Doug does have a tough grading policy, but he will often help you avoid those pitfalls either by telling you when assigning work or if you go to OH. I've even seen him slightly more lenient depending on the course.

Doug is easily the best professor at platteville. He is always creative with his lesson plan making every day something to look forward to. My only complaint is that he needs more shirts.

Professor Doug Select is a very interesting teacher. He's a nice guy but the problem is that he grades hw really hard. He will take points off if you have anything similar to anything online he will give you a zero, even when online sources are fine. his late penalty is huge. I turned in a quiz one day late and he took 50 points off.

Doug is the best professor in the CSSE department & probably the campus as a whole. He does a great job explaining concepts & making the course fun. He is always willing to help & if he is unavailable, then he will find the time. He does a fair job grading & listening to student's feedback on anything. If he is a professor for a class, I want him.

A true gem of the CSSE department. Available at any hour of the day or night, Dr. Selent wants his students to succeed. This doesn't mean that students will not have to work for their grade. If you are looking for an easy A, think again. He works tirelessly to make the lectures engaging. He could stand to work more on himself to prevent burnout.

Doug is a truly excellent professor. He has earned this 5.0 rating. He has fantastic methods for teaching classes. Quizzes instead of tests, projects instead of essays. And his in class demonstrations are always a treat. I asked him to be a professional reference of mine, and he said absolutely without even blinking an eye.

Professor Selent is the best prof in the SE dept. Hands down. He knows the material especially well, and cares to make sure you know the material as well. He tells you what will be on the quizzes. He's always available outside of class (open door policy). OOAD is not an easy class at all, but this is the most rewarding class I've ever taken.

Dr. Selent taught this course the first half in-person and the second half online due to a global pandemic. Despite the transition challenge, he provided some of the best Zoom lectures I have ever taken part of during my student career. It was convenient the second half of the course was much lighter workload compared to the first half.
