Amit Prakash

Great professor. Gives a manageable amount of reading, and I enjoyed the weekly responses we had to make for each week of readings. The Exams were fair, and included no surprises. I highly recommend taking a class with Amit Prakash, he's very knowledge, and a very good teacher.

I loved the professors that co-taught this class: Amit Prakash and Sunder Ramaswamy. The course itself was fast-paced and required an uncanny amount of academic reading. As an IGS major, this class helps give many baseline readings that will supplement the rest of your studies. I really enjoyed Professor Prakash's teaching and is guidance in discussion sections. Professor Ramaswamy is also a fantastic prof, but definitely uses less structure (usually no slides) for his lectures. This is a class you will want to force yourself to do all the readings for because there is usually a midterm exam, essays throughout and discussions weekly. Overall, this is a worthwhile class for the IGS major.

I enjoyed taking IGS 0201 with Professor Prakash. It was primarily a lecture style class and so it is the responsibility of the student to stay up to date with readings and notes. The midterm was a multiple choice/essay and the final was 3 essays
