Dipra Jha's HBM 280 class is amazing. Jha focuses on helping you make connections with large hospitality corporations and individuals and I currently am talking to two highly influential people in the field. He is more than just a professor, he is an enthusiastic and inspirational individual who I hope to remain close with for years to come.
Dipra was an amazing professor. Hands down one of my favorite classes taken here at Washington State University. He usually never lectured and always cared about his students. Homework was extremely detailed with instructions and Dipra always replied fairly quickly through email. He is amazing!
Prof. Dipra was one of my favorite professors, I learned a lot from his class and highly recommend y'all take his class. He is super nice, always responds emails, he doesn't give a lot of heavy work, instead of all the hard work, he provided more encouragement for us to be creative. He' super friendly, polite, formal, he dresses up all the time.
Hes awesome! So sweet talkative and helpful! Good projects and helpful material. Id take a class from him again
wonderful professor
I liked professor Jha a lot. He is probably one of my favorite teachers that i have had. With all classes moving to online due to COVID he was very understanding if you had to turn in something late or other issues. He was fast at grading assignments and was never to hard on grading but enough to where we would still learn for what we did wrong.
Jha is an amazing professor. I can leave it at that. His lectures actually make me want to attend class and are all extremely informative and also very interesting! HIGHLY RECOMMEND taking any class he instructs! He respects his students and actually cares about them.
Dipra is THE BEST!! He is very passionate about what he teaches. The course is engaging with lots of guest speakers. Assignments are fun and easy. As a student, I felt respected and was always encouraged to do my best. Could not recommend a professor more!
Professor Jha is highly committed to ensuring academic success for all of his students. His lectures are entertaining and full of great first-hand experiences that contribute greatly to understanding class content. If you are able to take a class with Professor Jha, DO IT. Most dedicated Professor I've had in my 5 years of college! Thank you!
Dipra is a super cool teacher and has the best bow ties :) I like this class a lot and would take a class again with him 100% Theres a few papers to write but he is very easy to come to for help!
Dipra is a caring and enjoyable professor. He connects with you on a more personal level and really makes the topics in class enjoyable. He also puts in a lot of effort to get many guest speakers into his classes.
Dr. Jha is by far the most impactful professor I have ever met. I have gotten so much out of this class than just three credits; he has connected me with amazing business leaders, I met the general manager of a luxury hotel, he has opened me up to possible summer internships. He is such a caring person who truly loves to teach and is passionate.
Professor Jha has been one of my favorite professors so far! The speakers he has brought in for lectures have been amazing and very eye opening into leadership and the work force. Grading and criteria are always clearly listed and I appreciate that he sends weekly updates for what is ahead for that week. I would highly recommend taking his classes.
Professor Dipra is caring and humorous. If you follow his steps, you will learn a lot about leadership. And what my favorite part is the guest speakers presentation which is really beneficial for this class.
Jha only holds zoom meetings on one day a week and therefore you work on other assignments for class during days when there's no zoom. This allowed me to stay on top of the assignments which mind you are very beneficial for anyone going into the Hospitality industry. Many guest speakers gave us the opportunity to learn from them. Readings are easy.
Very nice professor
Almost weekly guest lectures, very few actual lectures, and a few papers. There are two presentations you have to do. Discussion posts almost every week, but are not hard. Very understanding and awesome!!
Professor Jha is the best! He is so funny and always wears fun bowties! He really cares about his students. This class is super applicable to careers, even if is not in hospitality. If he could teach every HBM class I would love that! He is so funny and wants to make sure we are all doing well in school and in our personal life!
Professor Jha, was a great professor. He tried to make this class fun on an online format which is difficult, he also has some really great bowties! I would take more classes from him if I were not graduating.
Great Professor. Very kind and has lots of good feedback. 10/10 would take again.
Hands down one of the best and most helpful professors I've taken a class with. Prof. Dipra is a great resource in the hospitality industry and make a zoom lecture worth attending.
Dipra is really a great professor and his class is fun and easy.
He really teaches their students sincerely and cares for those who have difficulty doing assignments, etc.
Dipra is by far the most amazing professor I've ever had!! I enjoyed his class so much because he kept class very interesting and students were always engaged. He was also very caring and genuinely wanted students to succeed and supported them in any way in order to do so.
I was in both his 381 and 250 this semester. Attend his lectures not for your grade, but make amazing connections throughout the hospitality industry. Grade is based on 2 major papers and some smaller writing assignments (no exams). Pro tip: if you take 2 of his courses at once all your major papers are guaranteed to be due the same day.
I enjoyed the class discussion and I learned so much from the class. Good and organized supporting materials for the lessons being taught.
Professor Dipra Jha's lectures were really engaging. I appreciated him opening up with the question, "what have you learned?" This allowed the students to share their own experiences and made the lecture be a group discussion rather than a slideshow presentation. Professor was very knowledgeable with real world examples and this was wonderful.
Dr. Jha's lectures were well attended for good reason: from week 1 forward there was a high degree of positive interaction based on sincere encouragement for all to discuss what we've gleaned throughout. Although difficult for everyone to chime in at once, the climate itself was notably welcoming and thus provided exciting & refreshing engagement!
Overall my favorite teacher! The class is super easy and along with that you are still learning so much. His teaching style is awesome and super engaging. Definitely recommend taking this class with this teacher!!!
This has been one of the most valuable courses that I have taken as a hospitality major so far. Professor Jha has so much knowledge about the industry and shares it in his incredible lectures, and he also brings in so many brilliant guest speakers to give lectures. The workload is easy; there are only a few projects to complete during the semester.
If you take Professor Jha's class you can rest assure that you have a better understanding about international business and leadership which I think is better than just reading the book. He is giving his class a real life experience by bringing guests speakers from different part of the world. I wish he can teach all level of inter. business class.
Professor Jha has made HBM 280 my favorite class. This class is a great networking class because the Professor has so many great connections in the Hospitality industry. If you are looking for connections and a great learning experience this is the class for you! The amount of benefits you receive will be determined on the amount of participation!
One of the best professors I have taken. He has a lot of knowledge, his classes are interesting and he always is dressed amazing (not related but I loved it).
Loved this class! Super informational without being hard! Deficiently recommend it and would take any class by Dipra!!
I really like professor Jha, he is a really good professor. amazing lectures.
Professor Jha, understands the circumstances students are in. He knows, many of us are struggling with online classes. Made the class the class very accommodating where we meet once a week. Grades pretty easy and provides you with great feedback. This class will broaden your knowledge in international business with lecturers from around the world.
Professor Jha was inspirational, relatable and energizing in every live session we had during IBUS-580. His real-world experience was very interesting and compelling, proving just how important culture is in international business. I enjoyed his class very much and would absolutely recommend him and this course!
Professor Jha's international global leader's class was an incredible experience. We were able to meet students and professors from all around the world, listen to valuable lectures from experts in international business, learn about culture, different business environments and cultivate advantageous connections and networking opportunities.
Overall i loved professor Jha he was a great teacher. Made the course super interesting, and was always ready to answer questions. And made the course different than others with international meetings which made the class amazing. This was my favorite class i have taken so far.
Mr. Jha is one of the most positive & kind professors I have had while at WSU. He is passionate & highly experienced when it comes to international business. He makes every class a unique & fun experience while providing students with useful real-world exposure & tips. He truly cares about the success of his students. Would take again for sure!
Man if there is ever a teacher that youll miss and wish you had more time with the most its this guy . Overall an awesome and caring teacher who is not only understanding but patient. His classes are so intriguing and interesting. He makes school feel fun again. If you have a chance to have him as a teacher more than once do it! Best one!
I took his online class last semester. He had a great network with professors in many countries. He tried his best to make online classes less boring. He was an experience travelers and international professor. His IBUS 280 was not reading intensive but participation matters.
This class was super easy and the professor was amazing! Great lectures that were very informal and engaging. The homework is really simple. I liked that the homework was available way before the due date. I was able to jump ahead! Overall, this class is an easy A!
I really enjoyed this class, it was enjoyable without being super stressful.
I took this class with a co-learning format with other students from other countries and it was so fun and informative to have variety of perspectives from all over the world. Professor Jha is super nice and willing to answer every question you might have.
Professor Dipra is probably one of my favorite professors at WSU. His lectures are so interesting and he always brings in real hospitality professionals from across the world to talk to us. Definitely recommend taking this class with him.
HBM 280 with Prof. Jha was super easy! I ended with a 100 and have nothing but amazing things to say about both the class and Prof Jha. The class had lectures, one small paper, two 4 page papers, and other very small assignments. Everything was super easy to do and the information I learned in this class was super beneficial.
This was a great course. The assignments were clearly outlined, and Professor Jha had multiple real-life experiences that added value to lectures. Class is easy to pass as long as you submit assignments on time.
The nicest professor ever! I loved this class Dipra is the best!
I enjoyed this class and recommend every one to take the course!
This might be the best HMB professor that WSU has, if you are looking to take a class with him your choice should be already made. This is coming from a student that is not a HBM major. He makes class interactive and fun, he has great stories and examples to tie in your works. He also brings in great guest speakers that are looking to hire!
Dipra was a great professor. Lectures were online once a week. As long as you show up and submit your discussion posts you will get an A. I overslept for my final presentation and he allowed me to make it up. The class was super interesting and Dipra was a big part of that. Would recommend this class to everyone.
Classes were online and only held once a week. Each class was over zoom and had other universities from around the world participate. We usually would listen to a guest speaker, business professional, and then ask questions. I recommend everyone take this class, it was really fun.
I loved his class he was a great an amazing teacher. His teaching style was amazing and he had guest speakers that tied together with what we were learning.
Professor Jha is my favorite professor!! Take him if you can!!! Class is once a week, meets online. 80% listening to presentations from people all around the world (sooo cool), 10% weekly discussions, and 10% writing papers. Have fun with this class, honestly. It's not hard, just listen and genuinely think of takeaways for beyond this class.
Dipra is the best professor and loves to teach and help others. He is amazing, and I want everyone to be able to take one of his courses!!!! He also is very patient and focuses on the students interests and feelings.
Amazing professor, very knowledgeable in hospitality and international business. Learned and gained more than I could have imagined.
The best experience by taking this class abroad with Professor Jha. Now, this motivates me to expand my horizons and look at my future from different perspective. I would take other classes with Professor Jha because of the unique approach to every student.
Had an amazing experience from all of the activities that Dipra Jha planned for us. It was extraordinary and a once in a lifetime type of experience. I highly recommend it and you will not regret one bit of it. A highly rememberable experience with many great moments to think of.
My study Abroad to Dubai was only possible due to Professor Jha. I am so glad that he is a professor in my area of study. His knowledge of the industry adds not only to my learning experience but adds to the whole WSU HBM and IBUS departments.
By far one of the best professors at Washington State. He's inspirational and always put students first. I would actually recommend to any student no matter your major to take a course with him if you ever get the chance.
Profesor Jha is defiently one of my favorite professors. I had him now twice: once for IBUS 280 and once for HBM 496. Both classes were super engaging classes. Profesor Jha brings humor and interesting facts to each of hsi lectures. 10/10 would take a class with him again.
This was a faculty led study abroad trip. Was a business class for credit on a week trip to visit the amazing world of Dubai. Would recommend everyone who can afford to take this trip with Professor Dipra to take it. Absolutely a once in a life time opportunity with a once in a life time professor!
Professor Jha is clearly an expert and passionate about hospitality. We all had an amazing experience in this class and learned more than we could have expected. His knowledge and attitude towards everything exemplified this. My horizons have widened and I gained immensely.
Professor Jha possesses a wide variety of contacts and resources throughout the tourism world, and he was able and willing to use them to enhance the class by bringing in a lot of guest lecturers from all over the world.
I think he is such a great Professer and is always willing to help his students. He always has a super great attitude and is always super encouraging. He breaks down assignments and makes sure you fully understand the context of what is being talked about. I was always ready to learn something new in his class and was ready for the great attitude
Dipra Jha is hands down an amazing professor! He is very charismatic toward his students and people in general. He has a lot of knowledge and experience about HMB, Ibus and the world overall so I recommend you take his class and take every opportunity to speak/ hear from him. While attendance is not mandatory, if you want to do well you should go.
Professor Jha was one of the best professors I have had throughout my 4 years at WSU. He is very clear on the instructions for his assignments, and his lectures are extremely interesting and typically feature guest speakers from around the world. I would highly recommend his courses.
One of my favorite professors at WSU! Workload is fair and grading is consistent. Lectures and guest speakers are enjoyable to listen to.
I think that he structured the class really well and made everything easy to do and turn in on time. He helped me when I was going through a though time and overall the class was taught well.
Professor Jha has so many stories to tell about his experiences working internationally, which helps with real-life context. We attended classes with other university students, which kept the class interesting, offering different perspectives. The assignments were simple and graded fairly, and it was mostly discussion-based with a few papers.
The course involved a lot of reading, but the selections were well-chosen. Assignment workload was fair, and assignments were relevant. Lectures were more of an open discussion. I really enjoyed them, but they might have been better with a smaller group or in person. You get out of it what you put into it.
Dr. Jha was very inclusive in his class. He encouraged each of us to have a voice. He was very supportive and really challenged us to learn and apply our knowledge. Dr. Jha acknowledged each student's comments, including what was written on the chat box. He was prepared for class and encouraged us to link what we learned from week to week.
Professor Dipra Jha teaches with picture and stories, easy to follow and get involved. The textbook choice was good and informative. We also enjoyed the team work arranged by him for encouraging more interpersonal communication within EMBA group.
Dr. Jha provides relevant examples from his experiences. He is a true expert in international business. He is encouraging and supportive. Overall, he is an amazing professor!
Dr. Jha brings current events to course teachings but in how the course is designed and topics he visits during his live sessions. He has an engaging style and brings his extensive international business to the class.
Dr Jha was a wonderful professor to have for this course. He has a wealth of real-world knowledge and experience and shares it in a compassionate and interesting way. Would love to take more courses from him if ever given the chance.
Professor Dipra taught us all the principles of becoming a great leader in the future and made us feel more confident as a whole, thank you Professor Dipra also for giving us tips and tricks for the real world!
The professor provided us with amazing lectures and very inspirational guest speakers. Thank you again!
Professor Dipra is not just a teacher, but also a mentor for his students. I also find that leadership has opened up a new side for me. I am also happy that Professor Dipra is a professional who can advise and support his students outside the classroom and university!
Awesome professor! Go to the lectures, it will be beneficial to you in the real word with networking!
Great Professor! Answers emails with time and is very communicative. The class wasn't difficult as long as you participate and attend classes. The class material will definitely give you insight into global affairs.
Professor Jha is the best!!! He has so many connections, and you will definitely succeed with him by your side.
He truly understands what he is talking about and has had first had experience for teaching this course. If I would ask him a question he goes in depth. He is very trustworthy.
I was worried for this class since it was my first class as part of the WSU OMBA program. I also haven't been in school in over 8 years. He is a fun professor and a joy to listen to. He takes the time to interact with the class and have open, thoughtful discussions about the concept. The coursework is manageable.
Professor Jha has such great real life experience that he brings to the table. I completed this class with a much better understanding of business and culture around the world. I really appreciated that the lectures were more real life and less "out of the book". The variety of assignments was also very helpfu.
Professor Dipra Jha has been my favorite teacher. He is very kind, and understanding. The lectures are interactive and allow students to see into business life worldwide first hand over zoom. I highly reccomened taking this class with Professor Dipra Jha!
Professor Dipra Jha is knowledgeable, fair and inspirational! He encourages the real-life application of international business concepts.
The class is online lecture. However, you will definitely not regret taking this class because you will be able to learn a great amount from people around the world. I feel like I was able to learn a lot from the lectures and had fun overall learning more about international business.
This was a fantastic class, one of my favorites. It was oriented around lectures from professionals and academics around the world, giving us insight into many different countries and industries. The grade is primarily discussion/essay based. Highly recommend it if you want an international perspective.
I had Professor Jha for HBM 280 so I was thrilled to be taking another class with him. This time, I went to the UAE study abroad program during Spring Break and if you're considering it, I highly recommend it. It is available to all majors, not just HBM majors. Professor Jha is a caring, passionate, knowledgable, and thoughtful professor!
HBM 496 is a study abroad class. We went to Dubai and had an amazing week. We had industry visit, workshops from local professors, and lectures about culture and history from Professor Jha. Although it was 14.5 hours flight, it definitely worth it. I would recommend all students, especially the ones with hospitality major, to participate.
Professor Jha was inspirational and created a unique and amazing experience for my HBM 496 class to Dubai. I really highly recommend everyone to take this class because it is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity led by a great Professor.
Professor Jha is amazing and led an absolutely fantastic trip to the UAE. He not only creates an itinerary that prevents burnout and exhaustion but also makes sure that you get a perfect blend of cultural and educational activities. Furthermore, he is so incredibly knowledgeable about countries and cultures and is captivating to listen to. 100/10
Professor Dipra was amazing to work with. He is very knowledgeable and presents the information in manageable amounts. He creates a fun environment and I enjoyed working with him. Very straight forward information and course is well planned. Considering doing more courses with him since he is an amazing Professor with knowledge to share.
I could not have asked for a better travel abroad instructor. He had an in depth answer to every question and has been practically everywhere in the world so he had very entertaining stories as well. 10/10 would recommend.
Best professor to study abroad with in Dubai! Dipra plans a very well rounded trip with some crazy experiences. Leading up to the trip you will have zoom meeting every few weeks. Not mandatory meeting but definitely recommend watching the recording so you are prepared for the trip. The only assignment is a paper answering a some prompts. Very easy!
Professor Jha was a fantastic professor. He is very knowledgeable in his field. He also is very willing to help/guide any student who asks. He helped me land an internship for this summer (I am a freshman) which I am eternally grateful for. Additionally, his lectures are really informative and provide exposure to all areas of hospitality.
Awesome lectures with people from around the globe. Not a lot of work outside of class which is nice.
I was very inspired by this professor, and enjoyed his course throughout the semester. I learned about so many different programs through the Hospitality Business Management program that I know want to participate in this next school year. I would love to take another course with this professor again.
This was one of my favorite classes this semester, it was easy compared to my other classes. Dr. Jha is well respected and all those who interact with him speak highly of him. I will be looking for more of his classes.
Professor Dipra Jha is very knowledgeable, well organized, prompt, and professional. I truly enjoyed being in his class IBUS600. I thought he had done an amazing job organizing such an awesome trip to Dubai & UAE. The trip was an eye opener and a mind changer. I am very thankful to Professor Dipra Jha, and I highly recommend this trip to Dubai.
This class is amazing, and professor Jha is amazing. The whole process of preparing for the course, participating in the trip, and then the debrief was all very enlightening and helpful. I will always suggest this course, and this professor!
Great Professor - extremely knowledgeable and kind. Would absolutely recommend.
Excellent study abroad professor!
This professor has a passion for international business and other areas of expertise. I loved this class and would recommend Professor Dipra Jha to anyone
Professor Dipra Jha was a great instructor for taking us on the Study Abroad program for the OMBA. He was knowledgeable about Italy and gave us great information on our study abroad journey
Amazing study abroad experience. His preparation made the student experience beyond my expectations.
Excellent professor! Would take another class with him again.
Dr. Jha is a charismatic and insightful professor with many stories and experiences to share. He puts in the work to deliver relevant and current content. He responds well and is easy to converse with. His course is fair, open-minded, academic, and theoretical/philosophical. Great professor.
Professor Jha shared his deep international experiences with the class to connect current world events with business trends. It was very eye opening for me, and a valuable experience when combined with classic academic instruction materials. I am a bit wiser because of this class.
Dr. Jha is an amazing professor with so much international knowledge to share with his classes. I enjoy every class with him!
Dr. Jha has a keen ability to keep the subject matter interesting and immersive. Not only is he brilliant and knowledge about the subject, he is able to provide real-world experiences from his own international business experience. This is the kind of class that you will regularly find yourself telling your friends about outside of school time.
Outstanding professor with lots of real-life experience.
Dr. Jha has traveled around the world, and he has many interesting stories to share--as well as a global perspective. He has the ability to look at situations from many different angles, which leads to thoughtful questions and discussions. Very enjoyable.
Dr. Jha is an exceptional professor. I thoroughly enjoyed every one of his lectures. His teaching approach, which combines storytelling and vivid imagery, is meticulously planned and executed, resulting in highly effective educational techniques.

I found the lectures given by Professor Jha to me insightful and useful to my education. He offers good context to what he is talking about in regards to what is going on currently and I think most people will enjoy this class.
Great class overall.
Dr, Jha was insightful and linked the lecture topics to real world events and experiences. He was open to questions & encouraged discussion.
Professor Jha made it a delight to come to his online lectures. He has a world of experience from his travels abroad that he uses as reference in his weekly lectures that make it easy to comprehend the topic being taught for that week.
Professor Jha was a great professor and taught a great class, I would definitely take another class of his. He provided a lot of good information, and we had a lot of fun guest speakers. This class is easy if you participate and post discussions. A few papers and presentations but nothing to hard!
This was unlike any class I have taken before. We were actually taught by a variety of people to get a true international learning experience. Mr. Jha did a great job of making students feel heard and was very reliable if you needed help or just wanted to connect.
Professor Jha was truly the best professor I have had at WSU. He cares so much about his students and always has their best interests in mind. He does a great job reaching out to friends and acquaintances within the industry to come in and talk to the class. He is such an inspiring professor and I am very lucky to have had him this semester.
Professor Jha is the best professor I have ever had. I was always engaged and so excited for class every day. He brought in guest speakers from around the world for EVERY class and I respect him so much. He puts so much work into his classes and is truly inspirational. Dipra cares for his students deeply and WSU is so lucky to have him.
Best class I've taken. Such an amazing insight into the world around us through guest speakers in every class throughout the world. If you don't mind waking up early I highly recommend this course.
Professor Jha is the best professor I have ever had. He has so much worldly knowledge and is such a great connection. He is actually the reason I came to WSU to begin with. I just got back from the study abroad program in Dubai. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and I highly recommend taking any of Professor Jha's courses if you can.
Dipra is really fun!
Professor Jha is one of the greatest professors at WSU. His care for his students as well as his class structure is something that can be felt even through a ZOOM call. This class is a must-take, it brings international universities together to get a worldwide perspective on leadership and relations.
This professor is very nice! His assignments are graded very fairly, simply put in a fair effort and cite a handful of sources if he asks you. One of the coolest classes I have ever taken with students and professors joining from around the world.
By far the coolest class I've taken. Professor Jha is so respectful and so kind, and all of the information learned from this class is very interesting. All of the speakers from around the world were super interesting.
Professor Jha is one of the best professors I have ever had through out my whole college experience. He brings in amazing guest
Dipra's class was awesome! He was able to connect me to one of the speakers in class and actually get me a job! His connections are so helpful and the class was very straightforward.
Professor Mr. Dipra Jha is extraordinarily knowledgeable and has immense international experience. his teaching style, engaging with students, and his class presentation are unique and it helps to understand the concepts clearly.
Wonderful!
Professor Dipra Jha is a wise person. I would definitely take his class again. This was my first class with him, and I hope I can take more classes with him. His teaching style engages the student to learn and read more. After taking this class, I changed my career plans because of the fascinating material. I highly recommend his class.
I learned more about how business's conduct relations internationally. It was really fascinating. Dr Jha's lectures seemed to come alive especially with all of the adventures that he has been on in the past and continues to do so by inspiring people and students internationally.
Dipra Jha is absolutely one of three of my most favorite professors that I have ever taken. (All three are tied) Dipra was always enthusiastic about his work, both as a professor and a hospitality specialist. I can not even find words to say to critique or criticize Dipra, he is flat out one of the best professors you will ever have.
Professor Jha's lectures brought the course material to life with his vast international experiences. I found unstuck ai and the textbook particularly helpful for staying on top of the content. Would recommend this class for the engaging discussions.
Professor Jha is an excellent instructor, His passion for hospitality systems and real-world examples made HBM 280 engaging and practical. He's approachable, supportive, and creates a positive learning environment. Highly recommended.
Professor Jha is an amazing teacher. He explains things in a simple and clear way that makes it easy to understand even difficult topics. He is passionate about what he teaches, which makes his classes interesting and enjoyable.
He is awesome! The class is mostly guest lectures that are super interesting and teach about the fundamentals of hospitality and tourism and lots of different job directions you can take. There are networking opportunities and the papers and presentations are very straightforward. Both presentations were on zoom. I'd take the class again.
Diverse teaching
Weekly lectures (once a week) were done by professors from all over the world discussing various topics. It was a super educational and engaging class with not much work.
If you do the work whenever you need to do it, and you put enough work on it you would get rewarded.
I would gladly take any classes with this teacher.
I really enjoyed this class. Professor Dipra was always understanding and easy to communicate with. His teaching and grading was very straight forward as long as you did your work you get the grade. There was no surprises of any sorts. If you had any concerns or knew if you may need an extension Dipra was understanding and communicated well
The professor really knows his tuff
Interesting lectures with strong class participation. Dr Jha is very well traveled, presents well, and takes a holistic approach to teaching International Business. He encourages students to contribute during class time and respects their viewpoints. His course is well structured, with a balance of case papers and a team project.
Learned and liked this class much more than I would have thought, all due to Prf. Jha. He had engaging and insightful discussions that tied to real world events. Highly recommend. Lots of supplemental readings but they all tied to great case studies.
Prof. Jha is one of the best professor's I have EVER encountered. He not only cares about the growth and development of his students but also cares about his own; when he improves, future student outcomes improve also. That's incredibly respectable and something you don't see everyday. He is a model for which all professors should take notes from.
Dr. Jha brings valuable insights from his international hospitality experience. His lectures are engaging, allowing time for meaningful discussions. The coursework can be demanding, especially with team assignments and case briefs, but the heavy workload is more due to the compressed timeline than the assignments themselves.
Great class! Be ready to engage in weekly discussions and stay current with the latest business news.
One of my favorite teachers I have had! Light hearted and welcoming environment, making it fun and simple to be and stay engaged. Discuss daily events and news updates often and international business topics were always recent and relatable. Accommodating and helpful, really cares.Very fun teacher and class!
Super fun class. Dipra is an amazing professor, and he really cares for his students. Main homework assignments are just discussion posts, so be present in class and guest lectures to be able to complete the assignments. He's very helpful and understanding, reach out and engage to get the most out of this class.
Dipra is truly one of the best professors at WSU. His industry knowledge & expertise are unmatched, and the guest speakers he brought in were always so insightful and engaging. You can tell he is a professor who genuinely cares about the professional success of his students. This class left me feeling so inspired, and I couldn't recommend it more.
Dipra Jha is hands down one of the best professors I have ever had. He is extremely knowledgable, cares about each of his students, and has a way of making each class interesting, engaging, and fun! The guest speakers brought into the class were truly inspirational and exposed me to careers and opportunities I never knew existed. Highly recommend!!
This is first course I take with professor Dipra HBM 401 and he's super duper nice and kind. I really enjoy his class and also I'd say take a chance to have conversation with him about career because he give lots of advice and good suggestion. I highly recommend take his class and I'd like take another class with him again!
Professor Jha is in my opinion WSU's most fabulous professor. He has the most useful and inspiring classes, all of the class materials, projects and assignments are so practical and I learned valuable things from everything he assigned. I walked away with new and valuable knowledge about myself and my future from each assignment and discussion.
a textbook was offered but not necessary to achieve an A
He is great! Has the coolest stories from Hospitality experiences and is very inspiring for students in the HBM college. Highly recommend all of his classes!
Super helpful with work if you have questions, but most work if any is simple and at a low quantity. His lectures actually have guest speakers that are relevant and his assignments are short and are all about preparing your LinkedIn, Resume, and other aspects of your professional career.
Professor Jha is amazing, would take this class again!
Dipra was extremely helpful and accessible - he is a professor that genuinely cares about the wellbeing of his students and their future. Dipra was extremely personable and professional, which has been great prep into going into the professional workforce. I would absolutely take Dipra again and I am so grateful to know and learn from him!
I wish this course was offered in person, it was held over zoom because there weren't any campus space available apparently. Dipra made the most of the zoom and his lectures, he didn't record attendance because its on you to show up and take the opportunities he hands out. He is very resourceful and only wants success for his students.
Dipra Jha is a great Professor. He is engaged in the class and wants the class to be engaged with him. He is very accessible outside of class and is a great resource for anyone who is in need of making connections or looking for internships.
Dipra jha has been one of the best professors I have had! He is such a respectful and helpful professor. He is understanding, and made class such a good time! I would defiently take a class with him again.
Professor Dipra is one of my favorite professors at WSU. He always tries his best to help in class or outside. This class was supposed to be in person, but we switched to online. He helped with my resume, met with me about internships, and always gives great advice. He's chill, kind, and has strong connections—I'd definitely take his class again.
Best professor you could ever ask for
Professor Dipra Jha is very sweet and helpful; he wants you to succeed and will do what he can to assure that. Having conversations with him outside of class is just as wonderful and enlightening.
