He is the worst professor I ever had! He always want to talk about himself, he always says that he has a lot of money. Not enough time for exams, and a LOT of homework each week, plus the Regional Analysis project. DO NOT TAKE HIM. He change instructions unexpectedly, and he says that it is our fault.

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFFESOR. He's a terrible teacher and a tough grader. I did the group project alone because my partner dropped the class, and he said my paper was well-structured. Then he gave me a bad grade, saying I missed info that wasn't in the instructions. Avoid him if you can!

WARNING Do not take this professor!!!! His instructions where so unclear that almost the whole class would get extremely low grades on the projects. Critical and and full of himself. Will not stop talking about how much money he has. The idea of contacting the dean was brought up several times. Please take another professor and avoid the stress.

Great professor. One of the most knowledgeable professors I've had. He not only shared academic knowledge but also real world insights from his entrepreneurial experiences, which made the course interesting throughout the semester. Attendance is mandatory. There are weekly assignments on McgrawHill plus weekly assignments for the business plan.

Professor Katusak is truly inspiring & one of the few professors with real-world experience in the subject he teaches. He holds high expectations for his students & demonstrates a high level of intelligence. He's engaging during lectures & very approachable outside of class. I even scheduled a Zoom meeting with him to get advice on my business.

Do what he says and you'll get a good grade, take advantage of zooms and you'll pass. You need to know the stuff before going in. So don't take it to relax.

Do NOT listen to any good reviews. Students wrote the reviews in front of him for extra credit to prevent failing the course, since it's near impossible to pass. Bad professor and not understanding of real business outside of the US or Mexico at all, especially considering how this is an international business class.

Yes, he is strict. He takes the work seriously and you have to put in the work. I guess you could say he actually wants you too learn. I disliked him in the beginning but realized at the end he was actually cool and pretty funny. He cancelled the final and passed us all. You had to like not show up and do the assignment to actually fail the class.

This is the first time I've ever felt the need to leave a review, but I want future students to be aware.This professor is a meticulous grader and often provides unclear instructions for major assignments. Expect to spend extra time trying to interpret what is required. If you have the option to take another professor, I strongly recommend doing so

Good professor, but he could use some work in communicating with his students a little better. It IS an online course, so I understand. Requires a Pearson purchase to do weekly assignments. A semester group project is required, with weekly case studies in groups as well. Just turn in the work, and you'll get an easy A. Exams are 100+ questions.

Professor Katusak assigns a heavy workload, including multiple large group projects with unclear instructions and strict grading. Exams are very long and heavily timed, which can feel overwhelming. Communication by email was difficult at times. Students seeking clearer structure may want to consider another instructor.
