Reviews of professor Mark Collins

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I had Dr. Collins for my UMS 281 class. I never had any issues with him in this class. From what I've seen in the classroom, he is a solid teacher passionate about what he teaches. You do not see that in a lot of teachers around campus. I think he gets a bad rep because his class is not easy. It is challenging but rewarding when the work is put in.

I have had Dr. Collins since I transferred to ISU for my UMS classes. I always enjoy being in his classes. I was even a lab assistant and he always made sure that I was asking the right questions and checking the right components. He is very knowledgeable in Unmanned Systems and asked about how we are doing in his classes. I will miss him.

Sometimes the grades you receive don't quite match the grading criteria and that is something that I struggled with but other than that he is a good guy and seems to care about the program. I have had him as a professor for 3 years and haven't had any major troubles in his classes. Overall he is a solid teacher.

Mark was great in English 105. He encourages participation in a very opening way. He will try to make you be right, which is a real confidence booster in a class that heavily relies on participation. The class is not a free A, but if you do the work and put in effort, you will get one. He is also an incredible nice person which is great!
