Reviews of professor Denise Demetriou

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This class is very interesting and not super difficult to do well in. Lots of reading, but as long as you understand general themes, you'll be fine. She clarifies and adds context to readings in lectures, which are engaging and provide good topics for essays. As long as you follow the TA's essay guidelines and attend lectures, you'll be fine.

Professor Denise was by far my favorite professor in UCSD. I was really scared going into HUM 1 and since she's a relatively new professor there wasn't much to know about her. She is very inspirational and something can be learned from all her lectures. she stays and talks to students if she has time. I loved her:)

Underrated professor, good lectures but are not podcasted

HUM is an awful course. All of my suitemates would complain and I had the least complaints. Demetriou is a good professor, and does not expect much from you. Just know your basic concepts and pay attention. As always, essays are based on TA so get to know them and what they want and you'll be fine

As everyone knows, HUM is a tough course, and sometimes not enjoyable, however, I enjoyed my entire quarter because of prof Demetriou. She is remarkably inspirational, with lectures that leave you wanting to know more. She often invites students to participate, and doesn't mind the awkward silences. Her TA's were relatively good.
