Reviews of professor Jeffrey Sosland

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He had a good sense of humor, but graded papers harshly. The extra credit was always available. He is very approachable.

I do not think I have ever had a professor who was more unaccommodating or such a stickler. He truly believes that his class is the most important thing in everyones life and conducts his class accordingly. He will give you bad grades if you write or say anything that doesn't align with his political views. Worst professor I have ever had.

I took Soslands complex problems seminar on water politics. Large amount of reading each week and a one pager with very specific requirements is due with the readings. Sosland is very experienced with water politics in the Middle East so he tends to focus there. Lectures can be pretty dry. Midterm and Final paper instructions are pretty vague.

Professor Sosland is very knowledgeable and facilitates great discussion and the co-curriculars were interesting. There is a one-page paper due each Monday with specific requirements, but it's not too much work. The midterm and final papers included a lot of material but were manageable. He doesn't post grades online though.

Professor Sosland is a great professor but his lectures are super dry. Global Business/Entrepreneurship is my least favorite class in the WSP, but it is bearable. You have to read A LOT and if you don't you will get left behind and be very lost in class.
