Cihan Artunc
Hard professor but very accommodating. He focuses more on the intuition and knowing that you understand the material that he is providing. The exams were hard and there was a problem set each week that needed to be completed
Professor Artunc might seem “uptight” at first, but the classes get more relaxed over the semester. Be prepared for a lot of problema sets! Overall, he’s great at teaching and incredibly helpful and keen to explain content (especially during office hours).
This course was good for an economics course, I think the early morning time and the pure lecture format makes it hard to enjoy the class if you do not find economics particularly interesting. There was only one problem set a week but they take roughly 2-3 hours to complete. The exams were pretty long for the 1 hour 15 minute allowance time, because the questions were extensive. Some topics were hard to distinguish and easy to confuse if you did not do the readings, but the lectures did go into depth on topics, and he gave opportunities to ask questions. His office hours were very particular and didn't have many options though, so asking questions during class is very important.
