chemical industry. Listen in and you will tap into the knowledge of decades of real experience. His lectures can get a little long winded and may lack examples, but this is made up for by his underlying passion. Get ready for a tough old fashioned chemical engineering course if he's teaching it.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/191092","quality_rating":5,"difficulty_rating":3},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:09:00.756810+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTQxMjY3Mjky","source_instructor_id":"rmp:191092","instructor_name":"Ross Swaney","course_label":"CBE450","course_id":"CBE 450","course_uid":"course_1e3326060f20e7f92c226d9a","review_date":"2025-05-13 17:04:56 +0000 UTC","comment":"450 Swaney is very different from other classes; he's vert helpful in guiding the projects during office hours and has a lot of knowledge to share. However, old habits prevail: unorganized class, consistently behind schedule, doesn't know when his own exams are, and project info is scattered throughout 5-6 different PDFs. Overall, not bad.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/191092","quality_rating":3,"difficulty_rating":3},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:09:00.756810+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTQwOTgwMjIy","source_instructor_id":"rmp:191092","instructor_name":"Ross Swaney","course_label":"CBE310","course_id":"CBE 310","course_uid":"course_b5f2d69262376f2247530313","review_date":"2025-04-19 01:44:53 +0000 UTC","comment":"Lectures are useless, no regard for other people's time, never provides direct answers.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/191092","quality_rating":1,"difficulty_rating":1},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:09:00.756810+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTM5NzcyMTIy","source_instructor_id":"rmp:191092","instructor_name":"Ross Swaney","course_label":"CBE326","course_id":"CBE 326","course_uid":"course_9dff714354560d61ad9bade9","review_date":"2025-01-23 01:57:21 +0000 UTC","comment":"Professor Swaney can be very helpful.
