He does have you do a group project throughout the entire semester which is graded individually but requires some outside of class coordination. Overall a great professor.",

He's so good about going through the material and you can really tell that he cares about what he is teaching. 244 is a tough class if you don't have an econ background and is a lot heavier with econ concepts than the course description leads you to believe.",

Not much math or theory and almost all applied. Would recommend this class! Just make sure to communicate and be clear in assignments.",

The course covers a lot abt the environment which is SUPER INTERESTING. Lectures are good, with Brad cracking the occasional joke! Simple econ background necessary, graded fairly, lowest quizzes dropped, weekly HWs",

Although the lectures can be a little long he really tries to make them bearable. The readings can be very daunting but the majority of them aren't necessary anything important will be covered in class.",
