Reviews of professor Philip Brandt

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Brandt is arguably the worst professor at UND. He assigns excessive homework, is way too harsh on grading, and doesn't treat his students with respect whatsoever.

Class is horrible, Avoid at all if possible and take the class with another professor, you will literally loose points on an assignment even if it is perfect for just messing up a file name, for example putting a - where a _ belongs. Also the teacher is very condescending and will call out students doing things and it is very awkward for everyone.

Professor Brandt was approachable and abundantly available. However, his projects were arbitrarily graded and work-intensive. Expect hours of plotting with little guidance given beforehand. His metrics for grading improved as the semester went on and (nearly) everyone got an A, but it was very stressful. Buy the book for the tests alone (Ctrl F).

Not a supportive professor at all. Is arrogant, rude, and condescending. What he says about this class preparing you for the industry is bs. Students are afraid to ask for help from him because he pretty much throws it back in your face and makes you feel stupid. He is unable to see any fault in himself and his teaching style.

This class is the worst. If you are seeking a masters degree it may be reasonable but still unsure. The midterm and final projects are insanely ridiculous. Brandts instructions are so unclear. The way he makes you do things literally will turn you into a robot. If you take this class prepare to have no other time for any of your other classes.

Everything was okay right up to the final project. We had to plan an entire route from the US to Iceland. We felt really unprepared and had no idea what we were doing. We had to sift through THOUSANDS of pages of documents to try to find the waypoints we needed and explain why. We spent probably a total of 16 hours just trying to figure it out.

The class was a joke until the last group project. This project was terrible and he did not provide any help. We presented and the professor would haze the students on every little detail. He expects you to know everything to his knowledge level and disrespects you if you don't.

WORST PROFESSOR in the aviation department! UND should be ASHAMED. His classes are a joke, we only met once a week for 10 minutes, instead of 3 hours a week, all he did was go over what was due each week without EVER explaining the actual assignment. Then instead of giving constructive feedback all he does is remind you how horrible you did. 0/5 !!
