Reviews of professor Safak Yucel

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Yucel was undoubtedly my best professor in the MSB. He was funny in lectures and his class was straight forward. While graded on a curve an A and A- are very doable

Professor Yucel is one of the best professors that I have ever had which is especially impressive considering that he teaches operations. His jokes are hilarious, the content is interesting and a good mix of quantitative and qualitative, and he always focuses on engaging the class. If you hate particiapation this class may not be for you.

Ok option for OPAN major but nothing great. Lectures were pointless

Just take his class. He is hilarious and engaging. Everyone raises their hands in his class(trust me this is very uncommon for operations) and engages in some way. Not only he is super smart, he is also super funny as he makes cold jokes all the time. Overall, great teacher hand down.

He's legitimately one of the best professors I've had at Georgetown. His lectures and sense of humor make the class super fun. He is also able to explain concepts very clearly and easily. Be prepared to jot down notes on what he says and what he writes on the whiteboard. But the class is still really easy to follow and clear!

Best professor ever. So engaging, so funny, so great. He grades fairly, is super helpful in office hours, and is awesome.

I absolutely LOVED Operations Management with Professor Yucel even though I'm not an OPIM major and have no interest in Operations. He's hilarious and such a nice guy who genuinely cares about his students. You will be shocked by how interesting this guy can make queueing theory. Fairly easy class but you will learn a ton.

Can't say enough good things about him. Makes the lectures extremely engaging, the concepts are super clear and he is always available. One of the best professors in MSB. Easy A too!

One of the best professors I've had at Georgetown! He makes a relatively boring topic interesting and engaging. Yucel is funny and calls on all the students by name and remembers what they say. Great professor. Class isn't very difficult either.

Would def recommend for OPIM230. Nice guy who makes the lectures very interesting and interactive. He rewards participation, so make sure you read up on the cases when applicable. My only complaint is the lack of prep material for the midterm/final. There isn't a ton of formulas to memorize so make sure you know them well

The GOAT. Didn't expect to enjoy OPIM 230 as much as I did, even with the online transition. Professor Yucel is the king of corny dad jokes, can make a subject as boring as operations feel interesting, and makes a true effort to engage everyone in the class. The midterm and final both require a good deal of studying but are not hard in any way.
