Reviews of professor Syed Naqvi

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
A terrible Professor wrote an essay myself for which he accused me of using AI, made me rewrite it, said it wasn't good enough, and gave me an F.

Only 3 assignments: 2 essays and 1 group project. Grades strictly since there aren't many assignments. Don't need to take notes. LOTS of group discussions over txtbook, but can get by w/o reading although you need to pull from the readings for the assignments. Very passionate and funny. Attendance is mandatory but allows 5 excuses in the semester.

Kaaz was always responsive, caring, and thoughtful in his feedback on our papers. He genuinely enjoyed teaching philosophy and scientific reasoning even if that isn't his main area of interest. He's a funny, laid-back, and respectful lecturer & I really enjoyed the class even if he does grade a little harder on our papers than expected.

BIS1100 was a fun class and I looked forward to it. Attendance was mandatory, however if for some reason you can't make it he was understanding and had a virtual option. Class is an easy A if you complete your assignments, mostly the class is getting to know how UTD, the interdisciplinary department, and other things work around campus.

Kaaz is a great professor! I learned so much through the readings assigned and discussions we had in class. He does assign 2 group projects which are relatively easy if you ask him to review the work you have so far before submitting. Ask him questions if you are having difficulty with any homework/project/group members not doing work. Best class!

Very enthusiastic professor. Most of the class is just small group seminar about the book. Assignments alternate between short essays based on the readings and group slideshows about similar topics. The papers aren't graded very harshly and he's pretty loose with deadlines. Attendance policy is 5 absences = fail, but it's not too bad.

Love this guy! He has helped me so much with my master's degree. This course specifically had a lot of reading, but he is an awesome person who gives really great feedback. He is an understanding person and is passionate about teaching. Please take him!

Dr. Naqvi is the best professor I have ever had!! Please take his AMS2341 honors class! He is so passionate about what he teaches, and he is a very understanding professor.

Took this class online. Pretty easy honestly. Professor was barely involved in teaching, it mainly the student-led teachers. The class itself is super easy, so I doubt it matters what professor you take.
