Reviews of professor Kivanc Dincer

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Dincer is the professor you take when you want an easy A, minimal work, and to learn nothing. This isn't always a bad thing: for a class like 461 it helped me focus on my much harder classes. But for foundational courses like 305 avoid like the plague, and even for 461 you can't help but feel like it's a tuition scam.

Kivanc is very in-touch with students and is quite flexible with deadlines, but the projects are brutal and require a lot of self-study. Homework can also take a while, but for the most part it's easier. Lectures are questionable at best in content and structure, but he's very good with feedback on assignments. Overall a mixed bag, but not bad.

I took the class knowing most of the material and he managed to make me unlearn things somehow Managed to create assignments that counter the point of what he was teaching which is baffling Don't care about learning? Take him I guess As a tutor, I have noticed that students who take him struggle in courses that follow his class Avoid at all costs

Amazing. Literally one of the best professors at UWT.

This class is the easiest A you will ever have, and thats a good thing. The professor legitimately cares if you internalize the material, so he removes most of the grade stress that is common to CS and pushes you to the information. A bit disorganized, but never makes it your fault. Great professor

If you're looking to sit around doing nothing all quarter until the last second, then look no further. He dumped 17 assignments on the class within the last week of the quarter, some of them being due in less than 3 days. He was lazy throughout the quarter, assigning hours of watching lectures. Avoid his classes like the plague. Worst class.
