Doug Kulper is truly a gem in the dept at UCSB. He cares so much about his students and is more than willing to help them succeed. Tests and quizzes are critical thinking based but if you really spend the time to read, you will succeed. NO TRICK QUESTIONS!!! Very down to earth Professor.

Professor Kulper is certainly a good instructor and he has the track record and real life experience to support his teaching. Hes also heavily involved with campus activities (UAS and the TAG program). Just dont get on his bad side & dont try to correct him. He occasionally gaslights his student, including alum that have long graduated.

Doug knows the material and is okay at explaining concepts. He enjoys making the course harder than it needs to be. You can study as much as you want and think that you will get a good grade on his exams, but beware... His exams are 99% trick questions. Also, you are forced to use a webcam in this class, otherwise you'll get dropped.

Pretty Good Professor. Just a lot of reading and quizzes. Good advice. The project at the end is a lot of work. Overall, would recommend
