He asks extremely thought provoking questions during case studies--the best part of class. Smart professor. I wish he lectured more on his own rather than relying on the Powerpoint presentations. Put effort into your marketing presentation!

Easy-going instructor who made the on-campus class interesting. 1-2 page weekly case studies, open note/book tests, and large group project which is the majority of your grade. Beware of the group project and alert instructor of any problems ASAP as this can be your ultimate downfall in the class. Fairly easy class as long as you get a good group.

I enjoyed the weekly papers based on the questions at the end of the chapters. However, the open book tests were very difficult because you could not find the answer to the questions based on the book if you wanted to. I poured over the reading assignments and found this course more difficult than business law.

The instructor doesn't add much to the class. The lectures are pre-recorded and he just plays them in class. He tells a lot of stories about himself and drops hints about his wealth. The exams are online and they were messed up both times (wrong chapters included in the test). He is technologically challenged to say the least.

2 exams are given in class. They are entirely true/false, and interpretation can be subjective. They are "open book", but sometimes his answer is different from what is stated in the book. He is a harsh grader of tests. Participation is very important, especially with the group project. He is very open to communication, though, including email.

Prof. Corace is an engaging lecturer with a lot of real-world experience. No doubt one of the reasons he ranks highly here is that he's a nice guy and an easy grader. I didn't get much marketing knowledge, outside of the book (which you'll need for two exams). Beware the group project... it's easy to be saddled with team members who are duds.

So many other professors fall into the trap of losing touch with millenials generation and have had trouble adapting. He's been a fantastic professor!

This class doubled as online/in class. Lectures weren't helpful, just read the material and regurgitate in class for participation points. Exams are average and are taken online, not in class. The group project seems overwhelming, but if you're diligent and project manage well you'll pass. Pick a topic abt food, bring samples to the presentation.
