Reviews of professor Bieu Tran

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
May seem like a lot of work, but classwork is not hard, extremely informative. If you want to be challenged I would absolutely take. My writing became so much better after taking this class, and has prepared me for harder classes within my program. Some may find him difficult but he is a fair grader, only lazy people will Complain.

Way too many Group Projects. I can understand for an in person class but it is just so difficult to coordinate with people when everyone works at different hours. I love group work but I believe it belongs in the classroom or in person.

The online class is really HW heavy. lots of short essays every week and discussions post. The biggest issue with the class is how group heavy it is. The different groups overall for 3 projects. The semester project is by far the most challenging of all. My group had 2 people drop within the first two weeks. Just seems like the work piles on.

Just do the coursework. You should be fine.

I have to say that the class is a lot of work. Sometimes a challenge to keep up with when juggling other classes, work and a personal life. However, it can be done. I thought the professor could at times be a little more clear in what he wants, but appreciate his efforts to ensure that what's expected was understood once it was presented to him.

Took this as a summer class before graduation. This guy knows his stuff but expects you to work for your grade. In addition to forum posts you also need to write papers on case studies. You will learn a ton.

If youre looking to challenge yourself and actually learn something, you need to take a class with this professor. Yes, there is a good deal of work associated with the course, but to expect less from a graduate level curriculum is foolish. There are multiple essays and projects all geared to ensure youve mastered a specific unit. Well worth it!

It is my first semester at John Jay, and this course has been a good introduction to graduate studies. There is an extended amount of work (modules, essays, group projects, term paper, etc.) so you may want to consider if taking more than one course is feasible (there will be trade-offs). However, group projects should be an option, not mandatory.

If youre looking to dive into organizational theory take this class only with one other less paper/homework heavy class. Complete module assignments early, he will appreciate timely assignments. Miss a deadline its a zero. Each of the points count towards the final grade. Great ready for audio projects. Take advantage of extra credit opportunity.
