Reviews of professor Nicholas Cochrane

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
SO happy to be back in one of Professor Nick's classes. After working a long day, it is such a breath of fresh air to have a class to look forward to. I can't say more than what's already been said - if you haven't taken a class with Professor Nick you are missing out!

Took leadership over the summer with Professor Cochrane and it was so great to have an online class that is engaging, not boring, and you learn so much about yourself. My favorite part had to be the discussion board posts I never saw a class that had hundreds of posts in a week. I would log on every Monday because I was excited to see the next one.

Awesome class and great professor! Class is designed in a way that is not boring - videos, class discussions, and group work. There is a midterm and final, but the grades are with other stuff like homework and quizzes. He notices when you don't come so be sure not to miss class too much - but I totally recommend - great class.

Great Teacher - would take again - Had this guy for winter fast course - and it was great. He was great to go over all the material, let us work in groups, and always available for questions. There is quizzes and tests, but if you study and pay attention, nothing to worry about. Really great teacher.

Professor Cochrane is awesome and this class was great. Typical discussion board post and a couple homework assignments each week. Class is primarily based off your thoughts/opinions, so basically just do what is asked in the assignments and you'll get a good grade. One 3-5 page essay on a leadership role model is the toughest part of the class.

It would take my last semester, but I did it - I found my favorite class! Finally a course that is helpful to me as a person and helped me to grow as a leader. The course is built around you and your style, just make sure you do the work and the grade will follow. Paper is the toughest part, but after I did it I actually learned from it.

It's not often I talk about a class with my friends at work and at home with my parents, but I did with this class. Seriously best class I've taken at UML and maybe the best in school ever. The way the Professor set it up was awesome and makes us think about how we can be better leaders, not just how to learn about leadership from a book.

Hands down best class and best teacher at UmassLowell. I was told about this class by my roommate and I am so happy I signed up. Great weekly material and discussions and not boring. Lots of groupwork and I got to make new friends. Fair grader and he cared that we learned too.

Great class. Not boring and good thought provoking discussions. He responds to emails fast and grades fairly.
