His class was hybrid, we only had to go every other week and he did not make attendance mandatory. His lectures were basically him reading all his notes which is what you need for the exams which are all taken on canvas not proctored. One group project you have a lot of time for. Only thing is he will not give you extra time for any assignment.

What a wonderful man. I can't begin to describe how lovable he is. Caring dad energy. I really enjoyed learning with the structure of his class. I can say it was one of the easiest classes I took this semester, but also gives you the opportunity to dive deeper into the topics you're interested in. ABSOLUTELY TAKE HIM!

With all honesty, he's the best professor I've ever taken. It's rare to find a professor so caring and always willing to help. He always comes to class with great energy and says how he's in love with teaching. Will always respect your opinion and make you feel valuable. With his creative teaching ways, you will truly learn a lot! U won't regret it

1 group project, exams are directly from supporting notes and zooms, he provides supporting Zoom every week, super nice, friendly. Taking Dr Melbourne was one of the best choices I took. I advise everybody to do the same. He really cares for teaching and wants to keep improving by taking feedback from students!

AMAZING PROFESSOR! Seriously, if you can take him, do it. He does weekly online zoom meetings( not mandatory) but fun to attend (so do it if you can). He clearly wants all his students to succeed and he's a nice grader. He also does zoom reviews that thoroughly cover his exams (not proctored). He is always here to help you and answers emails fast.

One of the sweetest professors I've ever met at FIU! He truly cares about his students, makes the class interesting, and is always helpful. Assignments are super easy, quizzes are reviewed in class, and attendance isn't mandatory. Super manageable class, don't hesitate to take him!

Prof. Melbourne is great! I took Int. Bus. (Hybrid), Foreign Direct inv. (online), and next semester I'm taking Bus. in the Caribbean (online). His attendance wasn't mandatory, but lectures were very interesting and he cares about his students. His downside is no late work is accepted but if you stay on top of his minimal assignments you'll pass!

Great class, learned a lot and was one of the few classes that didn't overwhelm me with work. 5 mini-quizes, 2 writing assignments and 2 exams. Overall simple and straightforward class. if you need to take an elective for business take this professor.

Very well spoken and caring professor, interesting material and no extremely hard homework or tests. Would take again, participating in the zooms will help understand content a lot, its not mandatory though.
