Reviews of professor Gedeon Hakizimana

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I had a great time in this class. You have to apply the knowledge you learn in group settings, for your homework, and while presenting. This isn't a memorise and go, this is a learn and apply class. I recommend you get ready to apply what you learn.

Professor Hakizimana is one of the best professors I have taken class with at GMU. He lets you ask questions if you do not understand and will try to help you until you understand. He gives you 4 memos and 1 midterm and 1 final. No need for textbook he gives reading. Even w/ Covid -19 transition to online it was still a great class and interesting

Prof. Hakizimana is a great professor. He shared personal stories with us about his history that really makes him an expert in conflict resolution. He hits the textbook pretty hard so it's good to be aware of the different conflict theories and terminologies. The homework was clear but challenging. This class can be applied to real life.

Professor Hakizimana is a really interesting professor, I enjoyed his lectures a lot, and his areas of knowledge are really interesting to learn about in class. I really came to love writing Memorandas in the class, and he provides really good feedback on what you do well and what you need to improve on. He wants students to succeed, amazing class!

Great professor and such a nice guy! His lectures are engaging and all the work consists of four essays and an open-note midterm and final. Be careful, though, as there's only one extra credit essay. He's an easy grader as long as you put effort into your writing and show that you know what you're talking about, though. Highly recommend!

The class was fun for me and he was actually really interesting. The class was really focused on theories. He's a good guy but forgetful sometimes, he says he'll get the grades out soon but ends up taking a while, and sometimes the grading system was unclear. But most everyone gets good grades, just as long as you turn something in.

He really cares about your grade as much as you do. The class is a lot of reading, but if you miss some readings, then it's not a big deal. This class is lecture heavy, but everything is posted for you to look back at. If you have questions, then he is there to answer them. You just have to do the work to the best of your ability.

The material for this class was difficult to get through at times, but the prof will talk with you after class until you understand and is very accessible to meet to clear anything up. You will learn a lot from him and he is funny when he lectures! He does not hold back and will be very real in his lessons. I appreciated his honesty.
