Good teacher. Very professional. Expect what you deserve. If you keep up and do what is in the course outline, you will be fine. Remember to start early in the Operations Management Diary!

This is one teacher you don't mind making fun of you if you do not have an answer to his question. Very fun class, and the guy is not shy about letting you know what he thinking.=)

Cool guy-enjoyed his class a lot

Great teach took him in the summers, could not wait to go to his class

He's a great teacher. You would benefit greatly from actually reading the chapters. His exams are challenging, but all questions are from the study guide and major concepts from the book. He may seem intimidating at first, but he has a great personality.

He is ok, if you want to do good in the class, you should read chapters ahead of time. His lectures are not very clear! Tests are not so hard, if you have kept up with the reading. The final is like a regular midterm, not so bad.

funny professor. have him once a week, but he knows how to keep the class up from falling asleep with his fun jokes. there are 2 midterms and one final(not comprehensive). he gives group and individual assignments but offers extra credit as well.

If you'd like to learn, this is the teacher to take, you will get the credit for your hard work. He is better than most of business professor in the business department.

Good personality not afraid to joke around in class. Tests can be difficult but use study guide and lecture slides and you'll be fine. Quiz at the end of every class. Does offer extra credit book report.

He knows what he is talking about but he is not the best teacher. He puts people on the spot and his final was comprehensive. Not an easy teacher.

Not the best experience in my college career. Knows what he is talking about for sure but is somewhat arrogant and rude to students sometimes. Tries to make jokes that are not even funny. Tests are mixed with all types of Qs. Not really much EC. The class is easy to pass but hard to get an A.

he is a nice teacher but in his exam u must expect anything. i think u can find 140 teacher easier than him.

I was expecting this class to be much harder than it was. As long as you keep up with the reading and pay attention in class you'll do fine. He is funny, and offers plenty of extra credit, plus lenient grading (partial credit given generously).

His in class explanations were very clear. just read the book and do the homework and you'll do well. I took the class in the fall 04 semester. Other than my group project partners were lame and useless, it was a fun class.

Great Professor. Comes across harsh at first, but it is just a dry wit. Very funny and keeps class interesting. Willing to go into detail to be sure that everyone can succeed (ex. teaching MS Project after class). Best professor I've had outside Engineering (and he is an engineer, coincidence?)

Best teacher ever.

I think this guy is totally funny. I love to laugh so he is great. I learned half the stuff from bus 160 in business 161B with doty so this class was a breeze. As long as you can write a stupid essay, do math probelms then this class is easy. He is cool about teaching about japanese kaizen management styles going outside the box to educate us.

If you give this class a legitimite shot you will be fine. To get an A: read the chapters, just have a general idea of the chapter, I didnt take notes. Do the HW, most important part. You can have notes on the exam so copy the formulas and know how to apply them. Do a nice group project and that is it, he is a good professor depite bad reviews.

His class is not easy. However, it isnt much of his fault because the syllabus is enormous. He is good to student, giving some extra credits on exams and during classes, and grade fair in the homework. Though i did not get a good grade in his class, i still think he is an OK teacher. p.s. His lecture has a little accent, be aware.

Too much material in too little a time. This shouldn't be a class that you should take if you have other commitments. 3 of the 13 days were exam days; so he taught about 15 chapters in other 10 days. Exams are primarily M/C. I applaud him for teaching this course in 13 days, but I advise taking this class during normal session.

I took this class with him over the winter. Overall I think he is a decent teacher. Allows one page of notes and curves the exam. Some extra credit even though he doesnt like to admit it. His accent is not as bad as some of the other have said.

Dr. Loomba is a very knowledgeable helpful professor. He gave lot of interactive in-class assignments and made the learning interesting and experiential. Explains everything through relevant examples and makes sure that you learn something in the class. Highly recommended for graduate students and knowledge seekers,but not be for justgrade seekers.

Overall a good course, but could be taught in a more challenging manner. The in-class exercise was somewhat mundane.

His classes were very interesting as he gives very practical examples. Need to do couple of group projects and weekly HW assignment. Very helpful in explaining the topics. Horrible in time mgmt. though. 2 mid terms which are very easy and no Final exam. Term project presentation is your final. No accent problem, very knowledgeble prof.

A very conventional class. The entire class is based off the textbook. I never go to class and I'm getting a B. He's a pretty funny guy. I liked him a lot.

Made the class interesting with real world ex's. Very knowledgeable about the subject. Being a Winter course, a lot of info was compressed in 3wks. 2 Exams, 1 Final (comprehensive), TF & MC=60%, Calculations=40%, 1 pg notes (2 sides). Final was a killer on MC part, watch out for trick ?'s (read them thoroughly). Would take during reg. semester.

Teaches really well. Funny and Serious. good mix

Funny teacher! Adjusts according to the class. Tests are reasonable, but overall interesting class to take.

He's funny and knowledgeable about the subject. His lectures are interesting to follow and assigned homework are helpful. However, to be honest, his midterm questions are off the chart...some of them are difficult and not related to any lecture or homework problems. Overall, he's helpful and a good professor.

Good teacher knows his stuff for his tests he allows cheat sheets the text book is not used that much 1 paper to write a good class for summer

it was easy. he's pretty funny too. was an easy B.

his class is boring, just lecture, the tests are hard because he gives you questions that he barely covered and it's not really on the ppt either. nice guy tho.

Exam not too hard, he is funny guy, very helpful. make sure do all HWs and extra credit, you'll be fine. Attendance is not mandatory. make sure you stay in class all the way, especially right after exam, he'll give you extra credit. Good professor !

Awesome Teacher! He's really good with teaching Operations Management. Do all the HW because it's worth like 35% of your grade, 2 midterms, and a final. He allows a full sheet of notes front n back. Attend class to have a review of the textbook

Really good teacher, cares about students success. Allows cheat sheet, drops lowest midterm. Very clear.

Very Knowledgeable. if you read the chapters you should do well in this class. One of rare kind of SJSU professors, the ones that bring practice to class.

Dudes accent is a little thick. at times difficult to understand. 10 inclass quizzes, drops the lowest 2. three exams, non-cumulative, you get a 8x11 cheat sheet but the material is somewhat difficult. has experience in the field so he knows what hes talking about. case study weekend assignment for E.C. subject is hard so attend class andtake notes

Had Loomba for Operations Management. There are two midterms and one final. About twelve quizzes two of which he drops. Also has a side project where one must visit an operations factory or something. make sure you read all the chapters and attend class. the subject is kind of tough. He is a good teacher though and has a sense of humor.

This amazing prof is my idol. he helps me when i need it and is very true onn what he does

I loved this class because he made it so easy. Online quizzes and exams are a gift if you have done a little bit of careful reading. He teaches well and gives a lot of examples from his experience. I enjoyed his class!

Loomba is the model professor. He sticks to the material and gives you what you need to pass the exams and quizzes, but he is also very experienced in the field and will give you a lot of insights. He focuses on the concepts, not much of the math. I highly recommend.

He doesn't just teach the text book,he adds real life experience to his lecture. He is very knowledgeable and explains everything in details. He is very understanding and helpful. Test questions are not easy, you have to read the book in details if you want an "A". I highly recommend him.

This class should be turned into an online class. Quizzes, exams, papers, etc. are all online. A lot of people stopped coming to class. The class was really easy! Nice professor...and humorous at times!

The cutest professor around. Turban is almost as beautiful as the course material.

Overall a very clear online class. Work and materials are all organized in such a way that expectations and directions are crystal clear. Quizzes are on a short time limit, but you get 3 attempts. 1 discussion, 1 assignment, and 1 quiz due every 2 weeks. 1 group project that wasn't bad. Not too hard, and I actually learned some cool stuff.

Very clear, very caring. Understanding, but firm. Obviously knows what he's talking about. I would recommend if you actually want to learn.

Took his online 140 class in the Summer. Class is very well organized, four modules in total. The class is writing assignments and each module likely takes around 5-6 hours. Only quizzes, no exam or final. Might be a stickler for grading in the beginning, but eventually eases up. Would recommend for anyone looking to learn and get an A

Definitely not one of struggling classes for most students. In summer's class, 4 modules total and each contained 4 different assignments, which were doable, plus no exams. He didn't grade hard but it was kinda hard to tell what he expected in writing assignments. As long as you do and reflect what you learn in those assignments, you'll be fine.

Super chill online class. There are 8 modules throughout the semester with a discussion post, written responses, and an open note quiz each time. 2 weeks to finish. There are no midterms or finals. However, there's a group project and you have to pick your group mates and actually pick a company to report on and you have to travel there

It helps that I enjoy the material. He brings many exams which lightens their load on the final grade. Non-cumulative final. Entertaining lectures which keeps you from losing focus. Its simple, read, do HW, exams come easy with studying. If you are front of the class type, youll do well. Back of the class watching the Warriors game? Probably fail

Professor Loomba was super cool. Assignments are online and not too hard to complete, Exam curves, cheat sheets for the exams, and a group project that is worth 20% of the grade (for someone like myself who is not a good test taker, this was good).

Chalo theek!!! Great lecturer and def inspiring. Visit his office hours to get to know him and you wont be disappointed. He may talk a lot but he cares about YOUR learning. Good prof

Prof. Loomba is very detailed and his practical experience transcends all industries. He is soft spoken but strict, shares many jokes and makes all lectures interesting. The course work was eye opening and very well taught. I will take any other of his classes in the future. 7 star teacher and mentor.

Took his online winter course for 140. For the small amount of time, the class was compacted and structured perfectly. Four assignments due every four days; exam, numerical problem(s), discussion post, writing post. One very doable project, and provides everything you need to pass the class: powerpoints, online videos, chapter notes.

One of the best structured online classes I've taken. Super easy to follow, clear guidelines & grading rubrics. Super easy to communicate with as well. This class was such a breeze! I really enjoyed the assignments he gave us because they were always super relevant to everyday life. I'd definitely recommend this class!

Professor Loomba is one of the best professors in SJSU. His material is straight forward, easy to understand and will help you learn a lot about the current business landscape. No finals exam, just a group project, so if you finish it early, you can relax during the finals week. Go to his office hours if U're taking an onlin class. He's a real gem!

Great professor, one of the best I've ever had, especially for an online course. The course was EASY and if you really want an A, you can easily do so. Group project is your final and it can be done very quickly. I honestly spent maybe two hours every two weeks doing work for this course, but it was interesting!! Great class!

discussion prompts/quiz/short essays due every 2 weeks. group work wasn't so hard. no tests and no final.

Hands down a great professor! He is very reasonable when it comes to due dates and grading! The homework he gives is very interesting as well as the discussions he refers them to real-life situation! I would definitely take him and would highly recommend his class!

Took this course as well as another core business class and an upper div GE for the first session of summer. Was pleasantly surprised with how manageable the work was. 4 assignments per week: quiz, discussion post, critical response to article/vid, and math probs. These assignments are worth 80% of your grade. Final: 10%. mini case analysis 10%.

Make sure to turn in your homework on time and you'll be fine. Tests and quizzes are lockdown browser with webcam but he allows open notes and other devices. Would recommend.

Professor Loomba is clear on what he expects from his students. He gives optimal time to complete his assignments and is a respectable grader. Course work is made up of a quiz, discussion, and short-essay due bi-weekly. Fun group project and a final exam to wrap up the course. Just put in the work and you'll have 0 problems!

A solid choice for this course as everything is explained as to what is expected. Its definitely a difficult class because theres a lot of assignments due every 2 weeks. Makes you work for points as well. If you work hard and show effort then there will be good results.

If you want to have a good grade in his class, you need to make sure you understand the concept without any confusion and be successful with your group project.

Excellent professor. Best experience at SJSU. Do assignments including all the class activities, you will get a good grade. Really impactful and timely discussion topics. Learned a lot.

Prof. Loomba is very detailed and his practical experience transcends all industries. He shares many insights about operations analytics and makes all lectures interesting and meaningful. The course work was eye opening about the world of analytics and very well taught. I will take any other of his classes in the future. 10+ teacher and mentor.

Mr Loomba's lectures were interesting. The class seemed hard at first but as long as you put in the work you'll pass.

Prof. Loomba is focused on students' success. You learn so much about projects in business roles in his BUS 146 course. He has an incredible passion for empowering students abilities to become a future project manager. I really like the term project where developing PM tools helped learn by doing. An exceptional professor overall!

Super easy-going and welcoming professor. The canvas course site is well planned out. He is really passionate about project management topics he lectures on. The BUS 146 class was not hard at all if you do the work. Besides the open book exams, there is one term project for the entire course. He was responsive and provided feedback using rubrics.

Take this class for an easy A+. Professor is charismatic, lectures are kinda boring tho. Workload for this class is a joke: 3 assignments (Calculations, Video Quiz, Discussion Post) due every month. Exams are lockdown browser/webcam and taken at home but the professor allows you to use another device to access notes/textbook.

Professor Loomba truly has a passion for what he does and for his students. He shares a-lot of funny and insightful stories that breakup the lecture from just strict definitions. The workload is very manageable and you know ahead of time when everything is due.
