Professor Mildenberger really knows his stuff, even if he's not always the most organized guy. His ES/PS 177 is very evenly split between envi and poli sci material. If you don't show up to lecture, try to get the notes from a classmate, because his slides give you very little to go off of. And get ready to talk/collaborate in section!

Had him for ES/PS 177, and he clearly knows and cares a lot about what he teaches, and balances the material well between poli and envi sci. Our section was participation-heavy, with group presentations and roleplay activities. He's not the most organized prof out there, at least he wasn't for my quarter, but overall, good course.

He was a good lecturer, interesting class. three 500 word response papers, a section presentation, and a final with extended response questions and you could choose which questions to answer.

Prof. Mildenberger is smart and delivers the course content smoothly. He knows both qualitative and quantitative stuffs and it's really enjoyable to attend his lectures for anyone interested in political studies. His lectures are nearly elegant proses to be honest. Many nuanced points and inspirations popped up in lectures! Clear grading as well.

I absolutely LOVED this professor. I am an ES major and it was the most interesting class I've taken. the response papers helped digest the material. He truly cares about what he is teaching and thoroughly explains information. He doesn't post slides with words on it, so you need to go to class.

Prof Mildenburger is nice but doesn't put anything on his slides so it's difficult for visual leaners because you can only listen to his voice. Also, it is kind of hard to follow him bc he goes into a lot of examples of dif countries and doesn't explicitly say definitions of things. Lot's of dense academic journals that were not really necessary
