Prof does assign readings but he integrates them into lectures. I would highly recc attending class for the discussion. Most of his material are HBS and consulting cases that tie into entrepreneurship and finance. He's also friendly if you're looking to get into marketing. I took him in the summer and it wasn't overwhelming.
Professor Nadeem makes the material relatable. Concepts are taught via cases and relevant real-world examples which makes learning both more exciting and understandable. Class discussions are very beneficial. He is also very receptive to feedback and communicates expectations clearly. Recommend taking a course with him if you have a chance.
I had the pleasure of taking Dr. Nadeem's course. As a transfer, this was my first experience at an UD course. I left inspired and a lot more knowledgeable with marketing. I used these skills to help grow my e-commerce business. The readings were all very interesting, his lectures engaging and overall great attitude.
Lectures & group projects combined, lots of readings but good grades. Professor Nadeem is really nice and caring.
Professor Nadeem has been a great teacher. His classes were very interesting and practical. Students from all over the world had the possibility to learn a lot from cases and articles discussed in class. He has been caring and friendly and he made me fall in love with Marketing so much that I will switch to marketing major back home
Dr. Nadeem is probably one of my favorites, if not favorite, professors at Cal. He is knowledgeable in what he teaches, understanding, and generous. I am so glad I took this course with him and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Took the course over the summer; would again, many times. Show up to class and make an effort to engage with the material and the prof., then grades will not be a concern at all. Dr. Nadeem was very understanding of, caring for, and accessible to students, much like a mentor. Emphasized Marketing concepts from both theory and personal experience.
One of the professor's first words was that he grades with compassion and he certainly follows through on this practice. His lecture style is super engaging. Be proactive about reading a very manageable amount of material and actively participate in this class and you will do well. Loved this class and would definitely take it again!
Professor Nadeem's summer course has been an amazing experience. Professor Nadeem is caring, understanding and inspiring. His lessons were engaging and the readings were interesting and useful. Would definitely take this class again!
This was such a great class, one that I will take with me for the rest of my life! Professor Nadeem is a very engaging professor who truly cares about the well-being and learning of his students. There were many real-world applications and the lectures were digestible & engaging. He's also very understanding and flexible. I highly recommend!
This class was amazing! I took this class in obviously in the summer session and he took so much care about us and our learning journey. He also respected and undefeated our different opinions as we all were from different home countries. I was able to learn many new aspects of marketing in theory and in order to cases. Thank you so much!
Amazing professor! Real world cases made driving home important topics easy and memorable. Because of this class, I view business as a value creation process instead of a solely profit focused endevaour. Marketing is about conveying value to the customer while allowing you to capture as much value in return as possible. A Must take class!
This class was amazing! You will read numerous case studies and articles that will be discussed in class. The readings are for the most part very recent and exciting to read. Furthermore, Prof. Nadeem is a lecturer who understands to engage with his students and involves them in the discussions. Would definitely take this class again!
Nadeem is such a caring and sweet professors who tries to get to know his students. Grade is based on two presentations that are graded leniently and a midterm and final that are not difficult. Lectures allow laptops and have a lot of real world examples with plenty of easy opportunities to participate. Best 106 professor IMO.
SO GREAT!! Love Professor Nadeem!
Tests are very arbitrary and require memorizing random details verbatim at times.
Professor Nadeem is really one of the best professors that Haas has. He cares so much about his students. He is very easy to communicate with and replies to messages within minutes. Whenever my classmates and I would miss class because we got sick, he would always make sure to ask us how we were. I 100% recommend taking his class!
Midterm and quiz were easy. Final was super weird and hard. He is super nice in class, but assigns too much work. Friends in the other U106 classes work wayyy less.
Professor Nadeem is a caring and genuine person. He is accessible outside of class and responds really fast. The class involves a lot of group work, further enriching the learning experience. The grading is fair and the professor provides sample tests/quizzes which are extremely helpful. I most likely got an A-, but the experience was worth it.
Professor Nadeem made this class something you did not want to miss! His passion for the subject and for the students in his class was evident. The case studies were interesting and he constantly involved the class in discussion which was a great way to keep us all engaged. If you plan to take UGBA 106, this is the professor to take it with!
Professor Nadeem was a phenomenal marketing instructor, and in my opinion is among the absolute upper echelon of the teaching staff at UC Berkeley Haas school of business. He is an expert in the material and truly cares about his class, going out of his way to help his students succeed. I would recommend taking his class to any other student.
He was always there for us, and answering questions before and after class. He was willing to accommodate for the case study team alterations. He was assisting us to earn the best grade possible through the online quizzes and the generous points on the presentations.
Super easy and chill professor. The class is really easy with most being group projects and participation points. Attendance plays a big part.
Professor Nadeem is a really kind man and wants the best for his students! The course was very manageable and I learned a lot about marketing in the process. Lots of group work so make sure that you're able to form a good team at the beginning of class!
Professor Nadeem is one of the most kind and understanding professors I've come across in my academic career. The class structure is mostly lectures based on the textbook, discussion posts, and a few quizzes. We had one group case study project and a group field trip. I highly recommend taking this professor for marketing. Learned a lot.
This was one the first professors I have taken at my first semester at Haas and he has easily become my favorite professor here. He has very clear instructions on all assignments, he makes learning about marketing fun plus you get to go on a really cool feildtrip w/ your group overall there are 2 presentations and a couple quizzes would Reccommend!
Such a soft-spoken, brilliant man! He is very passionate about the content he teaches and about his students. Very responsive through emails, tons of opportunities to do good in the class, and brings in two interesting guest speakers! Very inspirational, and enriching experience!
I really liked his class. He was very organized and is very respectful to his students. He does use the book and also requires you to purchase the case study materials. It is important to read, because each case will be discussed in class. He is very kind and is extremely accessible outside of class. Highly recommend.
Nadeem was a great Professor who made marketing fun and engaging. I really enjoyed the company visit project, his motivational BCourses messages, and him as a person. Overall, really solid.
Professor Nadeem is passionate about marketing and transmits that love to his student. He made the course so fun and and manageable. Definitely one of the best professors at Haas!
I really loved how this class was structured, with lectures, case analysis, and article reviews, I was able to learn and apply the materials of the class in real world scenarios. The professor himself is an amazing lecturer, keeps the class engaged in meaningful discussion and is very understanding.The guest speaker invited was also very insightful
Professor Nadeem is extremely passionate about the subject matter he teaches and extremely understanding/accommodating to his students. He really wants students to get the most out of his course and emphasizes the readings as such. Recommend if you have any interest in marketing and are looking for someone passionate and knowledgeable for guidance!
Professor Nadeem is a kind and passionate professor who is always willing to help his students. I still keep in contact with him if I ever have questions even after the semester ended. I highly recommend taking his class!
Professor Nadeem is very passionate about the course content and does his best to make the class exciting! UGBA 106 with him included going on a field trip, doing many fun case presentations, and a few quizzes. One of my favorite classes at Cal!
Professor Nadeem was one of the best professors that I had at Berkeley. He is compassionate and caring and made class exciting to attend. I would hands down recommend him and his classes.
Professor Nadeem is one of my favorite professors at Haas. He is readily available for any questions/comments and is very easy to communicate with. He gets to know every student and puts a lot of thought into lectures. He encourages participation and helps foster a classroom environment without judgement or negativity. We love Prof Nadeem!
Prof. Nadeem is a great professor and extremely caring about his students. Workload isn't too much and is overall an enjoyable class. Even if you aren't pursuing a career in marketing, you will still be able to learn a lot of his class, especially because he often ties in recent articles and current trends. Would recommend for 106!
Professor Nadeem fosters and inclusive learning experience. I had a great time learning about different industry experiences and cases all while not intimidated by the Professor. Positive experience and would take his classes again.
Professor Nadeem brings a lot of great professional experience in marketing that it is hard to find in the academia. Lectures include lots of C-suites guest speakers that make the class engaging and inspirational. Highly recommended.
Professor Nadeem cares deeply about his students.He prepares for class throughly and in a comprehensive way. His guest speakers were top quality and made for a great supplement to the theoretical frameworks studied in class. While the class was heavy on assignments, Professor Nadeem showed flexibility in making adjustments when necessary,
go for it !
Professor Nadeem is caring and encourages you to get out of your shell. I enjoyed the variety of assignments to apply the lecture concepts, including group cases, field trip presentations, and in-class article discussions. It made me really digest the material. His guest speakers were great too! Also, study his sample questions for the exams!
He wants you to do well. You have no choice but to live up to it.
We explored marketing via real case studies and articles, grasping concepts through discussions! Participation is vital, and this is driven by the professor's encouragement to conquer public speaking fears, crucial for our future marketing careers. Taking marketing with Prof. Nadeem was an exceptional experience!
Dr. Nadeem is a very accommodating professor and you learn a lot through him. He cares deeply about his students and is open to adjustments. The course is not without its challenges and you do have to put in some work. However, the course structure adds a lot of variety. I can only urge anyone who has the opportunity to do so to take this course!
Professor Nadeem is an awesome professor.His class is very interesting and always gave students great feedbacks on discussions.He show great caring for students no matter in class or after class.He hold office hours for students who are need instruction on courseworks or career planning.Definitely take it again ! :)
One of the best classes at Haas.
The Professor's clear and insightful presentation of marketing knowledge has helped me build a solid foundation and grasp essential concepts. The diverse case studies and article discussions have allowed me to apply theory to real-world situations, enhancing both my understanding and critical thinking skills. Awesome classes! I really enjoy them!
Great teacher, very interesting, highly recommend
The professor is inspiring and motivating.
The experience was overall not good. The classes very often boring, there were lots of homework and readings to do without being notified correctly on which had to be done. Also there was a very confusing mechanism to submit homework and group projects. The professor should consider organizing the class better next time.
I absolutely loved UGBA 106 w/ Professor Nadeem! The professor is incredibly deliberate in the way he structures this course, and I appreciate the seamless incorporation of current events into the curriculum. Overall, Nadeem facilitated amazing conversations that led to meaningful connections both in and outside of the classroom.
Dr. Nadeem is truly a caring professor. This class has been a blast and shone a new light onto marketing for me, so much so that I started applying to marketing internships. He encourages participation which keeps the class engaging. A lot, if not all, of the hw is through groups so you are able to distribute the work.
Phenomenal professor and individual. He truly cares about his students success. He finds relevant content to go over in class and will adjust his lectures and class structure if he feels it will be beneficial for the students, truly dedicated himself to the role of a great professor who pushes you to be engaged and succeed.
Professor Nadeem is one of the most understanding Professors that I have ever experienced in my academic career. Always demonstrating a welcoming attitude during office hours, he encourages student participation and willingly extends assistance to those facing academic challenges. As a transfer, I highly reccomend taking Marketing with Nadeem!
Such an amazing professor, would take any class taught by Professor Nadeem again and again and again. One of the most genuinely caring professors at Berkeley. Lectures are super engaging with amazing discussions every class. Professor Nadeem makes the classroom feel like a very safe space and he makes sure that every student excels in his class.
Take this class, you will not regret it.
Certainly one of the best classes and professors at Berkeley Haas. Professor Nadeem really looks out for his students, whether that's in class or during office hours. If you show up to class and consistently participate, you'll not only excel with an A -- but enjoy a truly wonderful lecture.
I love Professor Nadeem. He is a great professor and very caring. He has motivated me to do well in school even as I go through tough times. Take him he's the best professor at Haas.
Professor Nadeem is respectful and a great teacher. He cares for his students and the workload is very manageable. He believes in Case Studies > Tests. Would take again 10/10.
Nadeem is definitely one of the more enjoyable professors at Haas!! He's very kind and truly wants everyone to get a good grade. Grading is fair (and easy) w/ a lot of group work and discussions, so do attend class. Sometimes it is hard to hear him properly. Exams are also fair, but you need to be prepared well with all the class material covered.
Professor Nadeem is incredibly kind and understanding. I sadly have been going through a lot of extenuating circumstances and Professor Nadeem has been willing to work with me to make sure I learn and am not penalized for things outside of my control. I'd highly recommend taking 106 with Nadeem and you'll be sure to learn a lot
Nadeem is a wonderful professor who genuinely cares about his students' success. He is very accessible and willing to help. Grading is on the lighter side. Only piece of feedback is to have the mic closer, as it was harder for those in the back to hear. Overall a one-of-a-kind professor.
I had the pleasure of being a student in Prof. Nadeem's marketing class, and I could not have asked for a better experience. He has not only deepened my understand of marketing but also made me love the subject. He has a very engaging teaching style that made the class a joy to attend and he was also very accommodating with my athletic conflicts.
Such a wonderful professor. Truly cares about each of his students.
Nadeem is super cool and he loves you. You won't learn much if you don't attend the lecture. Either way, you will get SOLID A-
Very theory based lecture heavy class, I will not be taking away anything/learned anything this semester. Final and midterm are poorly formatted with very subjective and obscure applications of the marketing concepts in the questions. I would recommend you take his class because it is easy, but don't expect to enjoy the class.
You have to form a group at the beg. of the semester to work on group assignments and 2 group presentations (case study + field trip arranged with your own group). He speaks really softly and doesn't care to project his voice. A boring class and most people didn't pay attention so don't expect to learn. Just participate often as he will cold call.
Great prof. Shows that he cares about his students. Makes sure to teach marketing from several angles: theory, lecture, field trips, and case studies. Amazing class that you get as much as you put into it.
Professor Nadeem is an amazing professor. He has genuine care for his students, ensuring that we not only understand the course material, but also feel supported in our learning journey. He listens to our concerns and encourages open discussions. It's clear that he is dedicated to our success, both in and out of the classroom. 100% recommend him!!
Professor Nadeem is a great lecturer with a wealth of knowledge. He was also very understanding and accommodating. For example when I went through a hard time due to loss of my family members he was the only professor that regularly checked in with me to see how I was doing. He also made it equitable for me to have a chance to end with a good grade
Professor Nadeem was kind, caring, understanding, and always willing to help. I loved his class because he is an amazing person and professor and allowed a lot of time for insightful class discussion.
Professor Nadeem is an exceptional instructor, combining flexibility in grading and course material with truly inspirational mentorship. His approachable nature and profound guidance make him not just a teacher, but a mentor to cherish.
Take this professor! Super easy, truly cares about students, and always ready to help.
Wow Professor Nadeem, he just totally rocks! When I was very depressed and couldn't fathom making it to most classes, I still went to his class because he is so uplifting and peaceful. He is a great guy, the course load is very doable and he brings in good speakers. 10/10, couldn't imagine a better marketing class! He always supports us and smiles!
Prof. Nadeem seems hypocritical, prioritizing good reviews over genuine student care. He demands impossible article citations for his exams. Despite stressing class participation, he awards equal points to all, making engagement feel pointless. Not a rewarding class; Prof. Janet Brady is a preferable choice.
Prof. Nadeem is extremely thorough and informative in his teachings. I'm yet to endure a course so interactive and integrative with the real world! He fosters a collaborative environment which seems to be the most enduring factor regarding real-world application. If it were possible, I'd take him for all courses in all honesty. Highly recommend!
I enjoyed every class of professor Nadeem, his enthusiasm for marketing, teaching, and material made me genuinely excited to come to class and made me like marketing now. I am about to read and study more marketing by myself.
Professor Nadeem is a wonderful Professor - personable, engaging, creative, innovative, and genuine. I truly appreciate how he is invested in his students, and approaches teaching with such authenticity. He is equipping students with modern skillsets and a robust mentality. All this while, he is so supportive and positive. Would recommend!
Prof. Nadeem is the most caring professor I've ever had. He wants you to succeed, and gives advice that helps you do well in class + generally in life. His class is engaging, fun, applicable, and you get to bond with your other classmates since there's so many group projects. Take him, 100000% you won't regret it. (Show up to class for an A+).
Professor Nadeem is incredibly caring and truly respects his students! Classwork is not too difficult. You are required to do a few group projects in teams. The class curriculum for this semester has an emphasis on AI. We also get some readings every week and have class discussions. Participation and attendance matters. Exams aren't too bad.
By far the most boring teacher I have ever taken. Attendance mandatory, he cold calls, we did absolutely NO marketing.
Professor Nadeem is very personable, supportive, and intelligent. I truly appreciate his ability to connect with students and teach with an authentic, innovative edge. His unique touches make the student experience so much more positive and uplifting, with genuine care interwoven into every activity. I would highly recommend!
Professor Nadeem is a personable, passionate, and intelligent source of knowledge. I truly appreciate that he is invested in his students' success and genuinely cares, creating strong positivity and empowerment.
You don't learn that much but the professor is so good looking. I went to class and I would just see him and it would make my day. His kindness towards other girls was a little weird but I let it go because he's just so good looking. I didn't learn anything in this class though. If you want a distraction from studying take this class.
Professor Nadeem is truly an amazing professor who cares a lot about his students and their overall understanding of marketing. He is always adapting his class to prepare his students for the real world, exemplified by his incorporation of AI this semester. I highly recommend students take this class and prepare to learn real-life applications!
Professor Nadeem is a great lecturer and 106 is a very engaging class.He also makes sure to integrate different types of learning like presentations, videos, guest speakers, etc- which enhances learning greatly. We even had a field trip project and covered marketing with AI this semester which has been super interesting.
Professor Nadeem is an incredibly friendly and inspiring professor. He does his best to make the class engaging and his efforts are noticeable from his interactions with his students. His style of teaching and the way that he creates a welcoming atmosphere for every type of student is definitely unique. I highly recommend taking any class of his!
Great and interactive lectures, also loved that he gave us a lot of presentations rather than papers
one of the best professors at haas, definitely take him for marketing, grading consists of quiz, midterm, and final (all super easy and online), and a couple group presentations that are chill -- definitely go to class and participate, it's important he knows who you are for the participation grade -- show up and you'll for sure get an A
By far my favorite professor at Haas!
Professor Nadeem really cares about his students and is always open to chat and willing to help. He creates a very engaging classroom with discussion in every class. Also, be prepared to do a lot of group projects - we were able to integrate what we learnt in class to real life companies and even a field trip!
Professor Nadeem is super engaging and loves active participation, the more you put into class discussions the more you will get out of it. He's really approachable and flexible if you're having difficulty with assignments and is very invested in his students succeeding.
Professor Nadeem's class is very engaging. He encourages us to analyze the practical concepts of marketing in class and use them in our discussions and experiences. He is also very caring and responds to as many students questions possible. Defiantly learned a lot in his class.
Professor Nadeem is genuine and flexible. "It is easy to get an A in my class", but if you want an A (>94.99%), you have to put in a good amount of work. His exams are in person, but online via Canvas. I loved the discussion-based learning (take notes, tested on exam). Practice exams are a perfect representation. CHOOSE GROUP WORK TEAM CAREFULLY...
Professor Nadeem is a great instructor! He is always approachable and willing to help. The course itself is relatively easy to get an A in, provided you put in the effort and stay engaged. Make sure to participate as much as you can, choose a good group for projects, and pay attention to what he says in class, not just the slides.
Professor Nadeem was very passionate about marketing when he taught my class and committed to engaging all of his students as frequently as possible. Participation is key to a good grade!
The class atmosphere is great.The professor encouraged everyone to participate in discussions,and I was inspired by the diverse perspectives that were shared.The discussions in class mainly revolved around theory and case studies, which is perfect for beginners.If you enjoy being part of a student-centered learning environment, you will like it.
Dr Nadeem is kind, approachable and creates a welcoming environment that makes students feel comfortable seeking help or asking questions. Professor actively encourages student participation during lectures and discussions. He provides timely and constructive feedback on assignments and assessments.
The Marketing course given by Prof. Nadeem isn't extremely challenge, as long as you put enough participation and time into the course. If you are interested in Marketing and share real-world questions with Prof Nadeem, I'm thankful that he's willing to share industry insights to help you gain deeper understanding as well as the recent AI trends.
Professor Nadeem is knowledgable and shares real life examples in marketing that helps us relate with the topics being covered. He is approachable and caring towards his students and focuses on a practical approach by learning from guest speakers he invites to his sessions.
Took EMBA 206 course Marketing course. Overall course was very well structured and paced. Prof. Nadeem had a very good balance of theory with and case studies. Learned on 4Ps, PESTAL, SWOT analysis, use of AI in marketing and effect of dynamic pricing on brand equity and customer loyalty. This is a core course.
Professor Nadeem is a kind, supportive, and approachable educator who deeply cares about his students' success. He connects theory to practice with real-world examples, making lessons relevant and engaging. His detailed feedback fosters growth, and his passion for AI marketing is backed by strong expertise and recent publications.
The professor used real world examples and scenarios to explain marketing principles. The professor also introduced to real life leaders to get an insight into everyday modern marketing strategy and role of artificial intelligence in new age market place.
If you're passionate about exploring the intersection of AI and marketing, I highly recommend taking Professor Nadeem's class! He is incredibly supportive and genuinely cares about his students' success. The lectures use highly relevant and recent marketing cases, overall, this has been one of the most rewarding courses I've taken at Haas!
Prof Nadeem helps facilitate lively discussions in the class which foster learning. He is kind, compassionate and encourages curiosity.
Dr. Nadeem is such a wonderful professor! He is extremely caring & encouraging, always checks in on his students' well-being, & has an optimistic approach to teaching. The course is based on case/group projects, which help you think outside the box & are very creative. I highly recommend 106 with him; he is one of the best Professors at Haas!
He taught a wide breadth of marketing topics, but was willing to narrow his focus based on the learning goals of the students which is rare. Second half of the class looked different from the first half due to the above changes. He's a nice human and brought in successful people from all over his network to talk to us which I appreciate.
Professor Nadeem was very accommodating and genuinely cares about his students. A lot of the class is group project based, and it was fun working with my group on the projects. I also enjoyed how this class included AI and sustainability, making it relevant to today's business world.
Professor Nadeem was a highlight of my college career thus far. He made every class memorable, and I came out of it learning so much. It helps that he is also an incredible person who builds a connection with every student in his class.
Professor Nadeem contextualizes his marketing class in the real world, focusing on very key ideas such as AI in the modern marketing world. His incorporating of case studies allows you to apply what you learn too. Overall he is a very caring and fun professor who enjoys interacting with students in class!
I took a graduate-level Marketing course with this professor and it was my worst academic experience so far. The professor did not demonstrate a strong grasp of the course material, and the lectures often lacked relevance to the assigned readings. The course structure felt disorganized, and class discussions did not provide meaningful insights.
Professor Nadeem is a kind and caring instructor who genuinely values student feedback. He is approachable, receptive, and committed to creating a positive learning environment. If you're looking for a professor who listens and supports his students, he's a great choice!
The professor expertly introduced fundamental marketing concepts and critical role of AI and its imminent impact on the field. Demonstrating deep expertise and genuine interest in student success, the instructor ensures valuable learning. Provides a window into current real-world marketing practices by introducing latest business cases.
UGBA 106 was an amazing class, and Professor Nadeem does an excellent job teaching it. He demonstrates a strong grasp of marketing concepts and genuinely strives to showcase their real-world applications. Overall, I had an incredible experience and highly recommend taking his class.
This is the worst class I have taken in my career. Instructor doesn't have any grasp of the subject material. If anyone asks any question he usually redirects it to other students. Most of the slides were generated using chatgpt. The class was so bad that the majority of the students petitioned to change the instructor.
Prof Nadeem is a professor who genuinely wants to get to know his students! He'll know you by name unlike other Haas professors if you actively engage in class. Much of the class is based on group project, so recommend taking with friends or building a team of trustable peers.
The professors covers a lot of topics and a bunch of reading material is provided which often is overwhelming but helps supplement the concepts well
Professor Nadeem clearly cares about his students and makes the class pretty engaging. Class time flew by, and I felt like the content was easy to grasp and interesting. A good amount of class time is spent on in class presentations, and if you show up to class enough Nadeem will remember you and your name (something we don't normally see at Cal)
Professor Nadeem is super caring, and his class has a manageable workload. There are 3-4 group projects throughout the semester, and you're with the same team for each project. I really enjoyed this class and recommend any course taught by Professor Nadeem
Lot of the reviews written here doesn't match my experience. Instructors have no knowledge in subject matter. He always evades questions from students. Sometimes shut down discussion.Lot of the reviews posted here seem to be written by a bot.
Professor Nadeem demonstrates genuine care for student success and invests considerable effort into the course. He maintains regular office hours, responds promptly to emails, and clearly wants students to grasp the material. However, he could improve his in-person lectures, providing more structure and clear explanations.
Professor is very disorganized
Opportunity to work with a real business which started within a year span and we learnt, how they leveraged marketing, importance of it and the real output of it. This was an amazing opportunity to understand marketing, the insights, intricacies you learn is priceless. Guest lectures in particular are valuable from some amazing leaders.
Professor Nadeem makes the class engaging with discussions, projects, and even a field trip. He's always willing to help and creates a welcoming atmosphere. Definitely take this class - unstuck ai was a game-changer for test prep!
Dr. Nadeem is an exceptional professor! He's incredibly kind and genuinely caring, and his passion for teaching shines through in every class. While there are a fair number of group projects and assignments, they're very manageable thanks to his clear expectations and the fact that work is divided among large teams. Definitely take his class!
Prof Nadeem is super chill! I love his classes I've taken ugba 106 and had to take ugba 168b international marketing with him!!! His classes are mostly group projects based and that was fun! The workload is totally doable! Would definitely recommend to ppl :)
One of the most engaging and caring professors I've had. If you pay attention, you'll genuinely enjoy his lectures and learn a lot he makes the material feel approachable and relevant. He's often at Café Think after class and is always open to chatting or answering questions. It's refreshing to have a professor who truly cares about his students!!
Dr. Nadeem's UGBA 106 class was one of the best experiences I've had at Berkeley. He connects real-world marketing with strong academic insight, making every lecture meaningful. He genuinely cares about students and fosters critical thinking. Highly recommend this class to anyone interested in marketing!
Professor did the most to make the class easy! Not hw heavy and quizzes were not difficult. Attendance required because we had many discussions and multiple group presentations which made the class more engaging. Prof Nadeem is also very caring and will go out of his way to help students both in and outside the class! Overall, highly recommend!
One of the nicest, most caring professors I have had. Very exciting content and through group projects the work is spread out very well and made easier by allowing for constant collaboration. Easily one of my favorite classes and professors at berkeley.
Professor Nadeem is truly one of the best professor's I have had at Berkeley. He genuinely cares for his students and he makes the course content interesting. I really enjoyed his class and will definitely be taking ugba106 with him!
great professor! loved this class and would 100% recommend taking it
I enjoyed this class, but note that it is not about branding or the creative aspects of marketing related to culture. We spent a lot of time discussing international trade in the context of politics and subsequently economics.
Great professor and class! really enjoyed learning from him and learned a lot from the class.
Professor Nadeem's class is great! love the course content and the projects are designed to be fun
One of the things that really makes Professor Nadeem stand out is that he's not just incredibly well-read in his field — he's truly a teacher at heart. He genuinely cares about his students, loves to teach, and wants us to deeply understand the material. He's kind, thoughtful, and truly exceptional at what he does.
Professor Nadeem likes to create a interactive learning environment and has been very supportive in any concerns either in class or outside of class. He gave us study guides for major exams and provided additional accommodations.
Really cares about the topic and is interested in his students truly learning. It's also easy to follow the course along.
Professor Nadeem is a great professor who cares about his students success and understanding of marketing. I like the structure of his class which is more participation based and leads to really great discussions as to how marketing for businesses has evolved and changed over the recent years. I would recommend his class to anyone!
Nadeem is awesome. Sweetest person ever. Wants everyone to succeed and makes sure they do. Exams are super easy, and he gets excited about everyone's presentations. Best professor I've ever had, would take his class a million times over!
Professor Nadeem truly cares about his students and takes time to get to know everyone. He keeps the class engaging through group discussions and participation. One assignment involves an office tour to learn a company's marketing process, which clearly shows how course concepts work in the industry.
Prof Nadeem is genuinely invested in his students. By the end of the semester, he knows everyone's name by heart and is generous with accommodations when needed. The class is well-designed (with real-world applications) and fair (no curveballs). My favorite part was the field trip project, where students can visit companies like Apple, Nvidia, etc.
Professor Nadeem's marketing class was really fun! It's relatively easy and you just have to follow the study guide for exams. He really cares about this students and also brings in interesting guest speakers. He does not require attendance though his class is still fun to go too and you do a lot of group work in class.
Professor Nadeem is an amazing instructor! The course was well-structured and the projects we do are directly applicable to the real-world. Exams are pretty easy too - just attend lecture. I love that he takes the time to get to know all his students by name and connect with them:) I learned a lot in his class and would highly recommend taking it!
really fun class and i loved the group projects and structure. would highly recommend
Professor Nadeem is a very caring professor, and he made UGBA 106 super fun and engaging! One of my favorite classes at Berkeley for sure, and I loved the real-world applications with case studies, presentations, and field visits. I would highly recommend his class!
Professor comes up with some creative group projects along with the times, and gives lots of opportunities for credit. Definitely recommend marketing with Nadeem!
I love Professor Nadeem! I had an amazing time in the class and learned a lot. He's an incredibly caring professor who goes out of his way to help students and make them feel respected.
