Thank you for teaching "Applied Mathematics I" at UML. I learned a lot from this class. I am looking forward to attend another class with you through my PhD. The topics covered in this class were helpful and well explained. This Prof was smart and capable of the class.Rate My Professors ↗

Joris is truly an amazing guy!!! His lectures are very detailed, structured, and well-explained. His homework is generally not easy, but if you put in some effort you will be fine. But the exams are easy, they are just direct applications of some important theorems. He is really the BEST math professor I've ever had here!! PICK HIM guys!!Rate My Professors ↗

Math 522 was one of the hardest courses I've ever taken period but I learned sooo much and found it super worth it. We used mostly notes that he provided that I found extremely clear. Tests were straight-forward applications of the most important theorems. Lectures went directly through the notes and I always regretted missing lecture. Hws toughRate My Professors ↗

Indeed Roos provided the most detailed lecture materials among all the courses I took this semester though he is a tough grader. He prepared for the class very well and kept updating the notes on his webpage, it was quite convenient and clear. Midterm is toughly graded but if you read the theorm carefully you will be ok on the final.Rate My Professors ↗

Indeed, he is a tough grader and homework is really hard, but hey, this ain't a top 20 program for no reason. Read the lecture notes and understand them well, and you should be fine. He will grade even tougher if you use notation he didn't define, so don't do it, be precise. If you like Analysis, this is your guy, if you don't, then he's not.Rate My Professors ↗

Terrible, terrible professor. Lectures are very dense and he goes really fast with the material. Homework is 5 problems every week, and only two of the problems are graded, so good luck! Only gives out homework sketches, so you never really get a full answer. Doesn't use the book at all, he has his own lecture notes.Rate My Professors ↗
