Reviews of professor Engin Calisir

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Calisir quickly became one of my favorite professors ever. The subject itself is difficult and can be confusing but he 100% tried his best to make sure everyone understood everything. He was very flexible and understanding with homework due dates. His exams were tricky but as long as you pay attention and read the book you can get an A.

Prof Engin is one of the few professors who actually understand the students needs. He cares more about teaching than quizzes or exams. The subject is tough but he goes above and beyond to make it fun and easy. Loved his class

lectures are heavy, tests and quizzes are hard. He tried hard to explain the concept but still not clear. The labs are very helpful to understand the SQL, but only have 3 classes.

By far one of the best professors in the BUAN program. He truly has a gift of teaching and will break down difficult concepts with real-world applications or fun models. He has a lot of outside responsibility, but always makes time to see the students. 100% would recommend him, and wish that every professor was similar to him.

Professor Calisir is amazing for database fundamentals. When the class asked for an extension on two assignments when they were struggling, he kindly gave them. Go to his office hours for feedback on assignment progress. His tests are multiple choice and he will give extra credit questions on the exams to help grades.

Professor Calisir is what a professor should be. He's good at explaining topics and trying to make them seem interesting. He's generally accessible outside of class for questions and will go the extra mile to help if he knows you are trying. This class is a lot of work but it's worth it.

Has a calendar-- won't necessarily follow it to the date if students aren't understanding a concept. He'll postpone quizzes (even exams) and make sure the class is on the same page before moving on. If you turn in an assignment and it shows you didn't understand it, he'll make you redo the assignment for a better grade. Great professor!
