Reviews of professor Nicholas Murray

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Murray was by far the worst professor I had as an undergraduate. He was very condescending, he refused to be helpful and answer questions, had little guidelines on assignments and constantly laughed at some students questions. He says he will be helpful and look at your assignment scores but instead he sides with his TAs and refuses to listen

For CHS 211, Dr. Murray was a great instructor who made class enjoyable to attend. The only things to be weary about when taking this class is to stay super consistent with the work load because Murray will not give late work any second thought no matter what, so always try to stay way ahead of deadlines to avoid any issues with online submissions

I highly recommend taking this class over summer/winter. The class surrounds on writing a research literature, so it's easy to just get over with and would be really annoying to do during a regular semester. This prof can be a hard grader but try to base your work on the rubrics and you'll do fine. Gives really good feedback and easy to reach out.

Dr. Murray was my teacher for KIN 422 which is motion analysis. He was at first funny and nice and was excited to teach this topic. Soon we all realized that he is good at lecturing but terrible at helping students. He would refuse to answer questions on things that we had minimal instructions for and condescendingly laugh at peoples questions.

Nick Murray is the absolute WORST professor I have ever had. He is the most self professor hardly teaching the class about motion analysis; all he talks about is his kids and jokes around. If you ask him questions, he basically calls you stupid. Too bad UNR does not offer any other motion analysis classes with a different professor.

He's very open, honest and well versed in the material but at the same time he's very awkward and appears to not really want to teach. The course is physics based but he doesn't explain the material well nor do his slides or when you ask for clarification, help either. I also couldn't stand his immaturity and how much he bashes on others.

Dr. Murray is a great teacher. I took him for a winter class and even though the time was tight, he made it easy to do and fun to come to. Definitely recommend taking this teacher. The class contains a lot of busy work but he made it do-able

I've been to 4 different colleges and I'm probably a lot older than the rest of the students at UNR. Murray is one of the most immature people I've ever met in my life. I've never had a worse teacher in my life. HE DOES NOT TEACH YOU ANYTHING. He changes assignment due dates and times and does not answer emails, AND doesn't explain the assignment.
