Harder class with a lot of readings but the exams were straightforward. Essays could be difficult at times with hard grading, however he provides good feedback on your writing and it’s possible to do very well in this course.

This course was unique. We read and discussed fiction works to better understand the sometimes dense historical readings we read throughout the week. Professor Tropp is very organized and understanding. There are two exams with some papers in between. Professor Tropp did a great job of weaving each countries history together.

do not take this class if you are looking for a distribution requirement. so much reading and lectures were just him talking the whole time with no slides with words just with pictures which made it very hard to follow all the material and dates since its a fast paced course. he is very tough on grading and no matter how hard you try it never seems good enough. I would not take this course again. Readings are long, sometimes hundreds of pages a week.
