Really interesting course and very manageable workload. One of my favourite poli classes

- one big essay worth 40% - final exam worth 40% - participation/discussion posts If you put in the time and effort, you'll do well

Super caring and knowledgeable prof

If you want your assignments and exams all marked by an inexperienced TA do not take this class. Exam was worth 40% and there was no criteria for it. It is also a new course so the professor doesn't know how to grade, so gives it all to the TA.

2 big essay assignments, a presentation, where you will get minimum to no feedback, and a 40% exam.

He repeated the same topics for weeks.

Everything.

Best prof and the best course i’ve taken at UBC! Takes a lot of critical thinking, but I wouldn’t say it’s hard if you’re a poli person. Most interesting course by far.
