Reviews of professor Stijn Brand

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Friendly professor who knows his stuff about astronomy. Lots of papers to print out and a text book was used as well. Mostly lectures, video clips, small group labs that kinda stuff. Class was in evening for star observations at night so bringing a snack and water helps. 10 min breaks are taken after going through slides.

I really enjoyed Prof. Brand, he was a great lecturer and kept the class interesting. You do have to print out a ton of papers for the labs. He showed a lot of videos and I thought he was funny! He knows a lot of about astronomy and I learned a lot in this class. It was a long class but he allowed a lot of breaks. He wasn't strict about due dates.

You need to attend every class to do the labs. Even so, he does not teach you how to do the labs before handing them to you. He expects you to figure everything out yourself and then gives answers at the end of the lab. The textbook is your greatest resource here. His communication skills are rough and he does not check his email nearly enough.
