Hamed was the only prof that made me realize how much I enjoy finance. Material is challenging and demanding, but is reasonable and rewarding to do well on. Go to class, take good notes, go to office hours!! Final & case worth 30% of course grade each. Took him twice & have no regrets. May be harsh but he genuinely wants to educate his students.

Professor Mahmudi is the best professor I've ever had course with at UD. If you need to take FINC312 or free elective, do not hesitate, do yourself a favor and reserve a seat! You will be 100% grateful to your decision.

FINC312 is going to be hard for students, no matter who the professor is. TAKE FINC312 WITH HAMED! Yes, there is a lot of information. But, he allows to use a double sided cheat sheet, and incorporates real-world examples into his lectures/test. Would definitely take his class again!

Corporate finance was very difficult! I struggled but I wouldn't have gotten through it without Hamed. He really knows the material and cares for us to learn it too. If you go to class and just try your best to pay attention be WILL teach you and you will pass. He is an amazing professor! One of the best I've ever had and he deserves admiration.

Professor Mahmudi is by far the best professor I have ever had. He might seem intimidating at first, but he is a great instructor and an even better person. If you listen to the lectures and study, the material isn't too difficult and his review problems help you to the fullest. I feel extremely prepared for future classes and I can only thank him.

While the content was manageable, there is definitely a lot covered in the lectures. I recommend going to class as anything Prof. Mahmudi says can show up on an exam. You can have a cheat sheet during the exam, and there are two group projects that are pretty easy if you have a good group. Taking it at the same time as FINC314 is useful.

I loved Professor Mahmudi's class. He is by far one of the best professors I had at the University of Delaware. You can tell he really knows his information and cares about the students learning as well. The exams were a bit challenging, but he gives you a ton of practice. He is always willing to help and help you understand the concepts.

It is impossible to pay attention in this class. The first two midterms are not bad at all as it is exactly like the practice problems. There is a group case study which is pretty hard. A problem set which is somewhat hard. The final exam was impossible however. I would not recommend for this class due to his teaching style.
