Reviews of professor Kevin Boeh

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Take FIN350 with him! While it's fast paced and you need to put effort to succeed, Boeh is amazing and he knows what he's talking about. Advice for quizzes/tests: do the canvas practice problems, study bolded things and do For Next Time problems in the course pack, and you should be good to go! Some of the qs are even taken straight from examples!!

Dr. Boeh's course is on building Excel investment banking models. It is unique, not taught at other schools. It is the same training he did on Wall Street. The course is awesome and so is Boeh, prepping us for success. We build models in class, no templates ever. He builds the models with us (but way faster). Take. His. Courses. You will learn.

Every other class you take at Foster will be a watered-down version of what Boeh teaches. Even the capstone course is vastly lacking compared to his B Econ 426 course. He provides great lectures with exciting anecdotes and works as hard as he reasonably can to help you. Though he does have some brash politics, they mostly stay outside the class.

Boeh is the best at UW. He brings the real world into the classroom. He clearly wants us to succeed in our careers after college. Useful feedback, clear instruction, and has seamlessly made the transition to online during the pandemic (far better than most profs -- many are doing the minimum). Make him the dean so everyone does what he does.

Prof Boeh is the man. In our last class he slowly looked around the room making eye contact with each of us, then said not to let the circumstance of our birth determine the outcome of our life. The world is our oyster, and Boeh will help you find it. He supports all of us, regardless of labels, politics, etc. No nonsense. Smart as hell.

Professor Boeh is great. He provides all sides of any argument, important on topics financial/political like minimum wage, taxes. He is very fair and respects and encourages differing opinions. This is a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of campus which is very intolerant of differences. Pay attention for hidden jokes.

Best Prof I have taken at UW. He tells it like it is and cares about students and wants us to be successful. He is engaging and tells (industry) stories that help us understand the work world. To the ridiculous review below, we are all tired of masks. Boeh is not at all anti-crypto; he just says that you might win big or lose big.

I am in Boeh's class. Post below is wrong. He records lectures when students ask him to. Glad he does this, otherwise people don't attend and just watch vids (why pay tuition when Khan is free, friends). Mostly, people need to know Boeh is a first gen college grad, went to Wall St, then PhD, now teaches to help future gens. Inspirational fr.
