I have taken 3 classes with Prof Oliver Grundmann so far through UFL Distance Learning. He is a very reliable & helpful professor. He answers his emails promptly which is a big plus specially with online programs. He gives detailed feedbacks on HWs which helps his students understand the subject matter even more. Def an inspiring professor!
In my opinion, Dr. Grundmann makes online courses preferable to brick and mortar without sacrificing any of the learning experience. Currently doing my MS in Pharm Chem with him and he is one of my favorite professors I've ever had.
I took Drug Abuse for electives with Dr. Grundmann, and I really like it. The materials were dry, but he tried to make it fun. Highly recommended.
He's awesome professor! Take his class!
Dr. Grundman is awesome. Very engaging and funny in his lectures. Substance use and abuse is a fun elective. You won't be disappointed!
Awesome teacher! Will definitely be taking another class from him.
Interesting class lectures, knowledgeable professor, clear expectations, low stress
This course has been very informative and I would definitely recommend it!!! He is very knowledgeable, gives incredible feedback, responds quickly to emails, and gives grades back quickly.
This professor was excellent! Besides the regular content of the class, he also creates audio lectures and summaries to accompany the material. He's very accessible, even when he's not in town. When turning in graded assignments, he will include clear explanations and feedback to your answers. You'll definitely work, but you'll learn a lot with him
Dr. Grundmann is very professional. I like him as a person, he is fair and extremely knowledgeable. He will work with you when it comes to homeworks and deadlines. I took whole bunch of online classes with him. I'm more critical of the actual program and online teaching rather than of him as professor. I highly recommend him.
He was a really good professor. His expectations were clear. It's a graduate level course so it's tough, but he is fair.
This course required a lot of reading and writing, but he was fair in his expectations and grading.
Dr. Grundmann is definitely the most hard-working professor I have encountered. He does everything possible to ensure online students can learn, and succeed. He is a fair grader, there are no surprises. If you email with a question/problem you can be certain Dr. Grundmann will answer. Be sure to listen to his lectures and take notes!!
The difficulty of the class was expected. It was not a breeze but if you read the notes and do the suggested reading it really prepares you for the quizzes and assignments.
All exams were open notes so you could easily search through and find answers. He doesn't try to trick you ever. Really fun and engaging professor for Drug Use & Abuse as well as Intro to Forensic Pharmacy courses at MWU Glendale
Took Dr. Grundmann for Integrated Sequence 2 at Midwestern University, Glendale. Very good prof with good lectures and sense of humor. Take notes, easy to see what he tests on, would recommend him. "Quizzes are like vegetables. I don't like them, but they are good for me and make me stronger." ;)
Great lecturer who makes sure you really understand the material and doesn't try to trick you on the exam.
Dr. Grundmann is such a hoot and entertaining to listen to; he has a quirky personality with which is easy to identify if you also love science.
Lectures were enjoyable and I liked having the clicker questions during lecture as a self assessment as well as keeping my interest.
Dr G is a great professor. I enjoyed every lecture. Fair grader, lets you know what to focus on for the exam. Never rushes lectures. Overall enjoyable class! Thank you Dr. G !
Awesome professor, I would recommend. My only complaint is the lecture itself could be a little dry. Dr. Grundmann himself is engaging and hilarious which makes up for the lecture material.
Had tons of fun in his class, plus the questions were relatively straight forward for the exams and quizzes. Very easy to access, especially considering he's adjunct faculty and not on campus every day!
Understanding and reasonable fellow.
The teacher is very helpful, and when you needed him he was always available. He is good in making understand when something was hard to understand by reading only the reader..
Instructor is readily available and is good at letting you know what is expected. Instructor is fair if you put in the work.
Professor was very knowledgeable and related what we learned in class to real-world cases, which I appreciate the most. Communicated well for an online program.
Awesome class! One quiz and one assignment per week. Lots of reading, but if you're interested in pharmaceuticals - it's very enjoyable! Definitely a class that requires effort, but nothing bad. He is always available for questions, responds to emails in a VERY timely manner, and is understanding with extension requests if necessary.
Clear course and prof Grundmann gives good feedback to incorporate into the next assignment. He was there for questions when needed even though the time difference and even in weekends. Highly recommended!
This is a good intro to clinical toxicology class. It is not too difficult and you learn a lot as a beginner clinical toxicologist.
I enjoyed PHA 6432. Dr. Grundmann is knowledgeable and is a great professor. I enjoy the online module. The online discussions and quizzes provided great opportunity to learn. The virtual office hours as well as feedbacks were very helpful. The class offered opportunity to improve as well as to think and apply knowledge.
All great really enjoyed the program and especially the chance to recap everything
Great teacher
GREAT PROFESSOR AND ALWAYS HAS TIME FOR QUESTIONS
Knowledgeable
I liked the lectures and the summaries
Dr Grundmann is a terrific professor for this type of learning. He has made learning all sorts of new information enjoyable by being supportive and always able to contact, which is a huge plus!
The best professor I've had in regards to being available for help and interacting with students. Would take this professor for every class if I could. He's awesome!
Oliver is a great professor! He is available when needed, open to suggestions, understands outside pressures, and explains concepts very clearly. His feedback on homework assignments is valuable.
the best
Thank you for the semester. I appreciate the feedback from assignments and quizzes.
Awesome professor and hope to have another class taught by him
Professor Grundmann works hard to ensure student materials are accessible and relevant - he recorded mini-lectures for most sections of each module for this class. His feedback is specific - you'll understand what you did well and/or how to improve. Prof.G is very approachable, he wants you to succeed: fast email response & office hours available.
Dr. Grundmann is truly a great professor. He cares, he is willing to help in even matters that extend beyond coursework, and he provides multiple media means in order to make complicated material accessible. You can tell he has put the time and effort into the bridging the gap between brick and mortar and online programs. He is an asset to UF!
Pay attention during his lectures and his quizzes will be straight forward.
Dr. Grundmann is a phenomenal professor. He is very intelligent, kind, witty and entertaining! I thoroughly enjoyed having him in integrated sequence for medicinal chemistry as well as drug use and abuse elective. I look forward to taking more of his elective classes in the future!
I am glad I chose his course as ine of my electives.
The Use and Abuse of Drugs class was very interesting and fun. The assignments were not difficult and kept me engrossed in the subject. I highly recommend this class with Dr. Grundmann.
Great class! Dr. G is very accessible to students. He responds quickly to e-mails and gets assignments graded in a timely manner. He is also the academic advisor for my program and has been an excellent resource for questions about planning my future coursework.
Dr. Grundmann is very passionate about the topic of herbal and dietary supplements. He also seems to promote a work life balance, which is great.
A very good class that I will recommend to others.
Course was introductory and covered a board range of topics at a very high level. Content was good, lots of reading, but definitely worth taking. Professor monitored discussion board and replied within a day. Would take a course with the instructor again.
The instructor communicates with students very well and provided useful and meaningful feedback.
Very thorough and approachable. Made lectures fun.
Dr. Grundmann made class fun. IS 2 was challenging, as expected, but he simplifies the material and makes lectures bearable. Thanks, Dr. Grundmann!
Dr. Grundmann was seriously one of the best professors I have ever had. Not only was he fun and engaging, he was definitely willing to listen and help the students in any way he can. He did NOT try to trick on exams and was extremely straightforward. I wish I could take more of his classes!!!!
Dr. Grundmann is so far the best IS teacher I have had. He is funny, smart and pays attention to what students struggle with. The best is that his lectures are fairly slow paced, so it doesn't feel like you are racing through all of the material. I would 100% take another class from him. HE DOES NOT TRICK YOU ON EXAMS!!! know your receptors!
Dr. Grundmann is an awesome Professor. He prepares you very well for exams with his student friendly lecture notes and Kahoot questions. He is always available to answer questions and gives great feedback. I HIGHLY recommend him.
Very intelligent, caring, and amazing lectures. Super funny professor that I learned a lot from. Thank you Dr. G!
Dr. Grundmann is great. Your points for the course come from in class quizzes, discussion boards, and one final exam. Being an elective, Dr. Grundmann is super flexible when other courses require more work and posts online lectures. He is hilarious.
Easy going professor
He is a great professor! Class was simple and informative. You will learn a lot about addiction!
Dr. Grundmann is an excellent teacher who cares that his students understand the content and are engaged in the course. He is very helpful and provides great lectures.
Best professor I ever had. Nice guy who cares and genuinely tries to help students succeed.
It has been a great class to get insight to fundamental pharmacy but like always more YouTube videos and PowerPoint presentation are really appreciated.
Dr. Grundmann has made one of my final units one of my favourites. I've enjoyed the content and found that I've had to work hard to finish assignments but they were interesting. The feedback and student interaction was meaningful and helpful which is appreciated for an online unit!
Overall a competent and nice lecturer. However, i only took an online course, so I had little real interaction with Dr.G
Great Class! I learned a lot and the content was interesting!
Interesting lectures and well explained. Good mix of lectures and theoretical module notes. Interesting Assignments.
course was really nice, a good addition to the dutch course I am taking
Dr. G is very approachable. I am so glad he was the director of the whole program. He is very respectful toward everyone and is extremely helpful with the course. I am glad to found this program, and I extremely happy that he is teaching most of the course in the program. Everything is lay out in a very clear and concise manner
Dr G is very good at explaining things and always gives good feedback on your assignments. I will definitely love to take future classes with him.
Dr. G has very wide and deep knowledge. I learned a lot from him. He is always available whenever we need help.
Incredible professor.
Dr. Grundmann wants students to succeed and he definitely takes pride in providing the most effective ways of communicating with students. He will always promptly respond to your questions, emails, and messages. I like that he provides a discussion of the assignment at the beginning of each assignment, giving clear expectations before you begin.
Dr. Grundmann's lectures are really interesting. He is gives quizzes in lectures & discussion posts on Canvas, so the course grade is not based solely on exams. Put in a little effort and it's possible to get an A in Drug Use & Abuse.
Dr. Grundmann is the quintessential professor. Knowledgeable, respectful, responsive, caring, etc. etc. Although you do have to work for your grades, I never have a second thought about taking one of his classes. Highly recommend.
The class is pretty interesting if you are open minded to herbal supplements. There isnt as much literature to search for in this class when compared to others in the major.
Professor Grundmanns work definitely required research and written assignments. This was definitely more work thank taking a quiz/test from the lecture material but the research and writing allowed me to apply what I learned and help me utilize material learned from the modules. I definitely learned more from this class than I thought I would.
All materials in the course are engaging and well thought out. There are lots of work but in the end you are more knowledgeable. Don't be mistaken by the level of difficulty because you do have to put in the hours of work for the grade you want. Overall, it has been a great experience for the summer course!!!!!
It would be great to get notes ahead of class.
Professor Grundmann, Is very knowledgeable and allows for a broad range of students to be successful in the course. The feedback on assignments, as well as responsiveness to emails, is fantastic! The course notes/lectures and supporting announcements are clear, concise, and very helpful in supporting the assignment asks and the overall course.
Dr. Grundmann is one of my all-time favorite professors. He made this class enjoyable and interesting, I'd recommend it to anyone.
Dr. Grundmann is highly knowledgeable and he is able to explain and provide examples in an easy manner. The module notes/ recording lectures and supporting announcements are clear and very helpful especially with taking online. The feedback on assignments, as well as responsiveness to emails, is a plus! I learned a great deal in his class.
Dr. G was very helpful. The course was a heavy workload, but I learned quite a bit.
Dr. Grundmann was approachable and attentive and replied quickly to all requests and questions. Requirements for assignments and grades were well explained during the course intro and adhered to. I appreciated that he genuinely cared and was understanding about requests for extensions due illness or other extenuating circumstances.
Truly the best. Highest level of knowledge. Great lectures, compassionate Professor.
Best professor. Amazing lecturer. Caring individual.
Literature survey class. You get to pick a topic, so pick a good one you can write a lot about. A 7 page research paper is somewhat grueling, but at the end I came out with much more knowledge on the subject than I previously had, as well as being exposed to new sources of information. Highly recommend.
His enthusiasm for the subject is infectious. He clearly cares for student. I which all my professors were like him.
Such a great professor, had him with a few of my classes, he never disappoints!
I took Dr. Grundmann for an online elective and found that the class wasn't too much work, but provided me with me good information. There was only one assignment a week and they were not too difficult. Most of the assignments did require me to do outside research, but the topics were interesting. If you put in the work/effort, you'll get an A.
Dr. G is an amazing professor with a wealth of knowledge, passion for the subject, and genuine concern for the education of his students. I was on the fence about stopping at the Graduate Certificate or going all the way to the MSPharm in ClinTox -- the fact that Dr. G is the course director pushed me to the Master's. His classes are must-take!!!
Very kind and caring professor. He is also very knowledgeable in his area of expertise. I highly recommend taking his classes, you wont regret it.
Gives you a clear idea what is wanted for the class. Does a great job of presenting the information. Explains the ideas and concepts very well. Hits everything you need to continue in the pharmacy program. Teaches what is on the test, is caring and gives quizzes so you have an idea of what is on the test. Great teacher overall.
I always attended lectures and he is very clear on what will be tested. He had weekly quizzes which were approximately the difficulty level of exam questions. He also did a kahoot game after the end of each lecture power point which also reflected exam questions. To be clear these werent the exact questions on the exam but they were good practice.
I definitely would like to see more of Professor Grundmann at Midwestern University. He is very passionate with his teaching material and makes the learning fun. The exams are not easy but if you prepare and study they are doable. Great guy all around!!!
It was a pleasure attending his lectures. He spoke very understandably and took the time to explain more difficult concepts and answer all questions. His lecture slides are really good and easy to study from and are really easy to refer back to when youre looking for something. Also his test questions were very straight forward and simple.
Dr. G. is a great teacher. He doesn't try to trick you on exams/papers. He is available and responsive to questions. I've had him for several classes. I learn a lot each time.
It was a pleasure attending Dr. Oliver's class. He is very knowledgeable and always available to help.
Absolutely one of my favorite professors. I really liked his class, from the information that may even just be an fyi to the format of the modules. The quizzes were fair and the assignments made you think but not to the point of overstressing. Caring is an understatement for Dr. G as he is willing to help you succeed no matter what.
This is my second class with Dr. G and I find his classes to be very informative. He provides great reading material, besides the modules. I really appreciate that he brings real life modelling (i.e docking or in silico) which allows you to really apply the principles you learn. He is very caring and wants you to succeed.
Dr. Grundmann cares about his students' success. He is very empathetic and understanding. The assignments were relatively easy as long as you could explain your argument (in most cases) and actually try. I wish I could take him again.
Great professor. Clear at all time and really understanding. Great attention to student.
He is very busy, but he can answer all email that you sent.
Focus on the lesson/module notes. If you have a PDF of the textbook, use CRL+F to find information. Reading of lesson notes does take a while. Homeworks are fairly in-depth and time consuming. Dr. G responds very quickly to emails and he explains the information in an easy manner. Would take his class again.
Honestly one of the best professors I've had at Midwestern University. Grundmann is laid back and his teaching style is very informative on interesting topics.
Dr. Grundmann is an AMAZING professor! I enjoyed going to his class. I thought that his lectures/quizzes/final exam was very straight forward. He's most definitely one of my favorite professors at Midwestern. I would highly recommend his class to anyone.
Dr. Oliver Grundmann is a role model for all the students. He is always willing to help. He is inspirational and has a positive impact on his students. Respect Dr.G
Dr. G really makes lectures enjoyable and educational. He's really chill and funny, and his classes are pretty easy. You just need to show up and listen. I'd definitely recommend taking a class with him.
Gives great lectures, and the quizzes in class were very straight forward!
He is a very nice professor who goes out of his way to be available to answer questions and help. His assignments are very clear and his canvas course set up is top notch - I didn't think this was important until I took a course who's canvas setup made it almost inaccessible. You will get a consistent and top notch experience from all his classes
Awesome teacher I really enjoy his teaching. This is the 2nd quarter we have had him. Gets the point across and keeps you entertained. Amazing. Always a pleasure.
Hes clear, concise, and quite entertaining when it comes to lectures. I would definitely recommend Dr. G. His assignments and quizzes were fair.
GREAT
Great class. Grading is clear. Discussion posts and quizzes and a final exam.
You can tell Dr. G really cares about his students. He is clear with his criteria for assignments and is always available to clarify a concept. I wish more professors were like him.
Dr. Grundmann is one of the most engaging and accessible professors I've ever had the pleasure to take a course from. His material is presented in a manner that is very straightforward. If you ever have any questions, he is highly responsive by email and available for video conference. He never misses an opportunity to go out of his way to help.
As a medical professional, taking this course really expands upon some topics I took in my doctoral program and helps me with current EBP for clinical toxicology. I really enjoy the module notes and the selected text readings. The case studies augment the learning at hand and assist with reinforcing the material. Great class, great professor.
Great professor, appreciate the availability. All assignments are clear in what is required and excellent feedback for improvement.
Dr. G is an incredible teacher! I had him for an online course and am thrilled that I will have him again throughout my time in this program at UFL. He is knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and passionate just to name a few! With this said, his class is not easy. You will have to put in the work to do well. Would highly recommend!
Dr. G is an excellent professor. He is highly knowledgeable and provides challenging study materials through out the course. In addition, he applies real life hands on assignments with industry modeling software tools as this helps develop a stronger understanding of the learned material. He is very responsive and will work with you.
a respectful,caring and reachable out of class professor
Dr Grundmann made the class very interesting and attractive. This is an introductory class that goes over those boring basic chemistry bases like "pKa", just to mention. His lectures were very clear, easy to read and to understand and made the class fun. I don't hesitate to recommends him. Guaranteed that you will learn.
I have taken five classes with Dr. G. He is a great professor who is very knowledgable about the subject matter. He provides course material, textbook readings, and assignments that enhance learning and knowledge. Incorporation of material-relevant software is wonderful. He cares for and respects his students, and he's always willing to help.
Very helpful
Helpful
I really enjoyed having Dr. G as my professor. From all of the IS professors, I am going to miss him the most. I felt like I learned a lot and his quizzes were helpful. He uses Kahoots and also prizes at the end to give us a reason to study and prepare for the Kahoots. That means that I was getting more prepared for the exam material.
Dr. Grundmann is very caring for his students and is passionate about what he teaches. Gives quizzes (Kahoot!) at the end of each lecture to reinforce material. He does not surprise you on exams. Everything is clear as to what you need to know and how questions will be asked. GO TO LECTURE! He gives TQs throughout lecture to focus your studying.
Great professor, definitely pay attention in IS2 to the drug names and medicinal chemistry. The quizzes were very helpful and similar to the exams. Dont skip class, he does Kahoot! quizzes in class at the end of every lecture that is also similar to his exam questions. Good Luck!
Best professor yet! The lecture material was well presented. Lecture slide clear and concise.
Is a wonderful and funny professor that made class enjoyable. Would take another class with this professor.
I took Addiction with Dr. Grundmann and it was a great class. The two books were really interesting and it wasn't too much work for a one credit class. You do need to attend lectures for attendance points. I would recommend to anyone! Best honors class I have taken so far!
The class required weekly discussion posts and keeping up with the reading (textbook was Methland and Beautiful Boy). Lectures could go on for a while but it was a really interesting topic.
FIRST ONLINE CLASS FOR A WHILE. DR. GRUDMANN IS VERY RESPONSIVE TO EMAILS AND PROVIDE GOOD FEEDBACKS ON ASSIGNMENT.
Dr. Grundmann was very helpful anytime I needed to reach out to him. I felt that his homework assignments were very good at driving the lessons home.
Dr. G is a fantastic teacher! I have taken two classes with him online and will be taking more. I am not sure why his difficulty score is kinda low. His class absolutely challenges you but still allows you to be successful with effort on your part.
Dr. G is a great professor and I would highly recommend taking any of his classes.
Dr. Grundmann was very helpful throughout the semester. He explained each assignment eloquently and if any additional questions were asked he did not hesitate to respond. Hes a great professor!
Very interesting class and useful for my profession.
Dr. Grundmann is an excellent professor. He's caring, enthusiastic, and excellent at teaching complex topics using a variety of methods, and working one-on-one with students when necessary to ensure they understand the course material. He makes himself available if you need him and is there to help you succeed, as long as you do your part.
Dr. G is respectful and always ready to help.
Great professor. I'd definitely take another of his courses.
He cares for his students and has many a time helped students even on the day of assignments being submitted. He gives excellent feedback and has a clear-cut grading criteria. PHA6444 is the hardest course in the degree program, but utilize your resources: emails, discussion boards. A lot of troubleshooting but he makes it easy. Just do the work

I highly recommend taking a course with Dr. Grundmann. He shows enthusiasm for the course material and always replies back to student questions.
Dr. Grundmann is an excellent professor, super approachable, accessible, comprehensive... There should be more professors like him.

I really enjoyed having Dr G as a professor and look forward to future classes with him. This was my first online class in several years and I'm happy Dr G was the teacher, he made it easy to figure out the flow and get engaged. He does expect participation in discussions. Homework/reading took about 8+hours a week (I did it all in one day each wk)
awesome prof, would take him again if i had the elective space to in the winter!
Attendance required Participation matters
Would recommend and would take any class instructed by him again.
He is always respectful to the students and is very understanding. One of my favorited professors.
Love Dr. G great professor!
Great Professor! Had a great time in class, learned a lot
Without a doubt would recommend -- great topics, discussion, & fun!
The class it self was interesting, but however Dr. G. made it even more intriguing
Amazing and caring professor. Easy to talk to and he is direct on what he expects out of any class he teaches. He responds in a timely manner and gives you the required feedback plus more to your question or concern. Definitely recommend having him as a professor as well as taking the time to get to know him.
Dr. G is amazing! The most empathetic professor Ive had. So accommodating to the online format due to COVID. Gave us multiple surveys for us all to pick a weekly class meeting time and a time for our final exam since it fell on Election Day. You have to attend class to get the password to each quiz. Taking his elective again in the winter quarter!
One of the best professors I've ever had
Dr. G is very passionate about the subject and also very helpful in supporting his students. The lectures, video clips, supporting course material and well designed assignments are tremendously helpful. Thank you sir!
Homework is a bit more for this one credit class I think. However, I did learn a lot from the assignments.
Dr. G is an amazing professor with a wealth of knowledge, passion for the subject, and genuine concern for the education of his students. He is readily available and responds quickly. I learned a great deal in his class that I can now apply to my job function. I highly recommend taking Dr. G's class.
Dr Grundmann is an excellent professor
Dr. G has been a fantastic professor throughout my experience in the PharmChem M.S. program at UF. He is quick to provide clarity and answer any questions you may have towards your better understanding of science as a whole, not just towards a better grade. I recommend taking any course he offers, including this one.
Dr. G is a great professor and I definitely enjoyed his intro course as part of the University of Florida online MS program. He is accessible, responsive, genuine, and very knowledgeable and I recommend him wholeheartedly!
Dr. G is really great! This is the first class I've taken after 3 years and I think this class help me get the groove of studying again. Modules are understandable and clear, and his videos helped as well. Excited to take more classes with him!
This was my first university course in four years so I was nervous about how I would manage. This course rebuilt my self-confidence. I like that the course was self-paced and Dr. Grundmann responded quickly to my emails. He was also very patient and never made me feel bad for asking questions or not understanding a concept. I definitely recommend!
Dr. Oliver Grundmann is a great professor , this is my second semester taking course with him , he is very wealth knowledge , helpful and respond quickly to my emails, the modules are understandable and clear, I definitely enjoyed his class and highly recommend taking any course he offers.
He's a lot of fun and is very happy to answer questions but you have to come to lecture to understand what you need to know in order to pass!
Slides had too many words and not simplified at all to make them visually appealing for students. Also the pace of the class was extremely slow and then a lot of the material was dumped at the end for students to learn on their own. It was my least enjoyable class thus far in Pharmacy school.
Dr. G really cares that his students understand the material. Answered literally every question thrown at him, even though it did have lectures fall behind and then given to us all at once within 24-48 hrs prior to exam. Other than that, he is an awesome professor and if lectures are attended, you know what to expect on exams.
Dr. G responds to emails immediately even when you email him in the middle of the night before an exam. He clearly cares about his students, is passionate about his material, and wants all his students to master the material and really succeed. Hes very clear on what he will test on. Great class and prof! I cannot say enough good things about him!
This professor is really cool and nice. He made online courses fun by making int more interactive. I also enjoyed the fun facts that he had given us. One of my favorite was about DOPAMINE and how we should "enjoy first" to increase our DOPAMINE level on Valentine's then go out to eat. Haha, now i never forget the structure. Totally Recommend him.
Dr. G is a great professor. He's very caring for his students and will do anything to help his students succeed. He made online learning more fun, especially with the Kahoot quizzes. It's helps us prepared for the exam and at the same time, have some fun on these difficult materials. His exam questions were fair as well.
Best teacher I have ever had. I would take a 10 week course on how to properly open a bottle of water if Dr. G taught the course. The man can make any class interesting. MWU > UF
Dr Grundmann is one of my favorite professors,he made all the classes really interesting and made sure that we stay focussed. I love the way he has scheduled his course. Dr. Grundmann is always willing to help and always goes above and beyond to help his students.
Dr. Grundmann is amazing professor. I enjoyed all his classes I have been taken with him so far. If there is another class that he teaches, I will be the first one to enrol for sure.
Dr. Grundmann is an amazing professor. I had him for my Honors Addiction course and I got so much more out of the class than I had expected. At first, I was disappointed in how much homework was assigned for a 1 credit class, but they all turned out to teach highly valuable lessons. He is also a very generous grader.
Dr. Grundmann is an excellent professor. I had him for my Principles of Drug Action & Development I. The class was very informative and applicable to my job. He truly cares about his students and he is readily available to help anytime. He makes the online classes very interactive as well with peers. I would highly recommend taking his classes.
a very committed teacher with a lot of knowledge who responds quickly!
Very accessible. Engages and challenges his students to think with his assignments. Always open to questions.
I enjoyed the class. It's actually difficult but it should be :). Good professor and enjoyed the course with him.
Dr. Grundmann clearly cares to help his students succeed. You need to work for a good grade, but if you have questions, hell guide you in the right direction. Also responds promptly to emails.
Great explanations/lecture material, especially videos, really help to learn and guide you through the assignments. He makes you realize how good a professor can be, when he cares for his students and learning/education. I personally need a lot of interaction, and I felt I didn't miss a thing on this online course. Fair, clear, knows his subject.
I really enjoyed this class. The material is consistently interesting. I found that modules themselves weren't as helpful as the discussions and the actual research performed in completing the assignments(ty PubCHEM). I was worried I didn't have enough background knowledge going into this class, but this class was not super heavy chemistry.
The homework really helped pull the concepts from the modules together. The modules served as a guide, further reading and research was required to properly complete the homework. This approach is good for a more complete understanding of the material. Dr. Grundmann is very good at providing feedback and giving tips and advice in discussions.
I took Professor Grundmann's (Un)common Reads Addiction class and throughly enjoyed it! It did require a bit more work than I anticipated; however, I think it was still fair for a 1 credit reading course (as there would obviously be a bit of outside reading). Lectures were informative and interesting. Loved reading "Beautiful Boy"!
Dr. Grundmann is an awesome professor. Lectures are clear and I learned a lot from it. Would definitely take his class again.
Dr. Grundmann is an incredible professor. The modules are very informative and fairly simple to follow. Further explanation on a particular topic was always available when needed.

It was my pleasure to work with Dr. Grundmann over the past three years. He is amazing, knowledgeable, and supportive. He has the ability to make the concepts very simple. There are not enough words to express my gratitude, but honestly, It has never happened without his support.
Awesome!

I'm really glad that I had him as my professor. If you are thinking to join the Clinical Toxicology Program, go for it! Dr. Grundmann is amazing!
Dr. Grundman is a great professor. He goes above and beyond what is required to support students. He is fast to respond to emails, and office hours are very helpful.
Amazing professor that I was very lucky to work with. Always accessible, communicates very well, and is very supportive and encouraging of all students to perform well and understand the material.

Dr. Grundmann is well respected and a very humble person.
I have enjoyed every class I've taken with Dr. G!
Dr. Grundmann was such a cool professor. I took this class as a non STEM major and I was able to understand all the science behind drug addiction perfectly. There are weekly quizzes on the readings so read attentively. There is a final Voice Thread project where you have to connect material from the readings/lectures to a topic of your choice.
Professor G's teaching style is very communicative. Notes prepared by him for different modules gives very nice description of the topics without going through the lengthy book chapters. If any problem comes, directly contact him. Professor G is very prompt in replying/solving the issues. I am going to take other classes taught by him in future.
Great class, very interesting topics discussed. Will recommend to others. Thank you Dr. Grundmann!
Great course!
I like his lectures because he makes funny jokes that keeps students up and not asleep.
This professor is amazing. Dr. G is very passionate about his career and forensics. I would take him multiple times if I could !!
Definitely opens your eyes to Forensics in a fun way. Would take him again for any courses. Straight forward material and quizzes for comprehension.
It was my first experience following online classes at the University of Florida. Mr. Grundmann is easy to approach via the online application or via mail. He replies quickly to meassages and gives clear explanations on my questions. Good job!
Dr G. was a great professor for a first time distance learner like myself. The class was paced well for working professionals and his slides, videos and module recaps were incredibly efficient in synthesizing the relevant information. Thank you Dr. G!
Dr. Grundmann is a wonderful teacher who cares about his students. If you are struggling, he is understanding and willing to help accommodate what you need to be successful!
He isn't an actual professor because he doesn't teach anything. he just posts homework to do that he doesn't even grade. Lectures do not exist.
Not a real professor due to the fact that he doesn't teach anything. Lectures don't exist and professor Grundmann doesn't do any grading whatsoever. The student logs into canvas where there is homework for them to do. There are YouTube videos and sometimes lectures from other universities. It's confusing as to what he does other than copy and paste
Honestly love Dr. Grundmann. He's very easy to talk to, and you can tell that he cares about his students. His lectures at times can have very "interesting" discussions regarding the different drugs. This particular class with Dr. G was very easy! If I could I would take more of his classes.
Professor Grundmann is always very helpful and responsive. I have taken over 3 classes with him and have enjoyed each one. He is always there to help and will never leave any of your questions unanswered. He is a professor that makes you feel like he is here to teach you something. I enjoyed his courses and looking forward to next semester!
Dr. Grundmann is an excellent professor.
Provides online students with best educational experience he can create using mix of written work (challenging but will confirm you're learning the goods!), fair quizzes & group posts. Encourages discussions on relevant topics & is available via meetings & prompt email replies. Only prof I've had who's created VoiceThreads for Modules - love this!
Dr. Grundmann doesn't hold your hand or spoonfeed you, but be prepared to do a lot of independent research. When you need help and reach out, he is very thorough and helpful.
Dr Grundmann has a very broad and deep knowledge on pharmaceutical chemistry and is updated with new trends in the field. Course was an individual task but guidance provided on selected topic was key to focus on interesting aspects of the topic.
Professor Oliver Grundmann is extremely helpful and explains all the material in a clear and comprehensive manner. Whenever I have a question, I don't hesitate to send him an email, and he always responds quickly with detailed explanations, clarifying any issues I had.
This is the 2nd class online with Dr. Grundmann. The cases he assigned help us to learn the concepts. Objectives match well his lectures. He provide the references and give us advise on how to get organize. I have never made an appointment with him but the few emails I sent him he replies promptly. I am looking forward to another class with him.
Dr. G is always available if needed and provided example tutorials for the complex software we'd be using in the future. The assignments help you obtain a better insight on the concepts within the modules. You have to do your own research in most instances to provide thorough explanations but that's to be expected in a masters course.
Professor Grundmann has an unconventional teaching style, but if you engage with the course materials, you can still learn a lot. Unstuckstudy AI was a big help for study prep.
Really awesome professor, always available online to answer questions. His lectures and note are concise and hit all the important information needing to know for the students. Grading is fair. Highly recommended.
Dr. G is an awesome professor and readily makes himself available. He also provides different modes of learning and posts lectures. He responds in a timely manner to any questions and never makes you feel like it is a dumb question. I took at least 4 classes with him and was highly satisfied with all of them.
He is a great professor . that what I can say.
Dr. G is an impressive teacher and he is amazing at addressing all the concerns.
Dr. Grundmann gave me a good experience taking my first course out of undergrad, I really appreciate the way he sets up the class (very understanding with students who have a busy work/home life), I absolutely will take a class with him again given the chance!
Caring very open minded professor with interesting lectures. He likes to hear the opinions of students and values input. He is one of my favorite professors and will be taking him again! Participate and attend lectures and you will do good in his courses.
I liked how he was relatable to the materials and how he gave flexible time for most students to complete their work based on their schedules.
Dr. Grundmann is passionate about his work and the material he teaches. It is because of that passion that you will be enthralled during his lectures.
Dr. Grundman is a wonderful professor who deeply cares about the material/subjects he teaches as well as his students. He is very clear when it comes to explaining challenging material and very patient when answering questions. He has an amazing sense of humor and does a good job of relating new material to previous stuff. 10/10
Dr. Grundmann was a great teacher! His lectures and expectations were all very clear and straightforward. Dr. He also has an awesome sense of humor and would manage to make me laugh every class period!
Great guy, highly recommend
Great professor!! I would take every class with Dr. Grundmann. Very straightforward and interesting lectures. Very funny too!
Laid back teacher. Explains concepts well and makes class interesting. Would highly recommend taking one of his courses!
Great course to learn more about the stigma around addiction. Stay on top of the reading assignments, and attend class!
Amazing professor. Very flexible as long as you communicate with him. Would take again.
I've taken multiple classes from Dr. G he's very clear in the lectures, always available to reach out to and responds quickly. Doesn't try to “trick” students with pop quizzes or anything. He's very friendly and professional and seems to enjoy the topics. Highly recommend
Professor Grundmann has a great set up for this online course! Lecture recordings were very helpful to understand the content for those that learn better by seeing a PPT presentation vs reading paragraphs. Quiz questions are based on the module content. Assignments required a lot of thorough research. Couple of discussion posts required.
Professor Grundmann was always available to answer any material that was presented in the course work. He explained the material very well. I also had some personal health issues with my family and he was very encouraging and helpful.
Great teacher!!! Highly Recommend!!
Asynchronous class with recorded lectures and weekly discussion boards + quizzes. Great professor and explained topics well!
He is extremely caring of you and your academic career. He is always available to talk to help you when you need it.
Dr. Grundmann is an incredibly knowledgeable professor whose passion shines when he teaches! This one-credit honors course was the highlight of my semester. Very manageable workload and super interesting content! He makes the lessons accessible and was always willing to answer any and all questions I had!
Amazing professor, absolutely loved him and his class. Highly recommend!
One of my favorite honors course I have taken so far! He is truly an amazing teacher and puts so much work into the class. He is amazing with questions and feedback and goes above and beyond to provide external opportunities for students to continue learning. Light workload as it is a 1 credit class and you can see the passion he has in the subject
