Comment:
Thapa is a nice man and cares about the students, but he doesn't effectively communicate the Geodesy material to students. He goes on a lot of tangents and after most lectures, it does feel like he covered a lot of important material that stuck with students.

Comment:
Thapa is horribly unorganized and lets students that are loud mouths constantly interrupt and stop the flow of class. This combined with his horrible lectures that usually amount to him reading straight from his own half finished book make the class a complete drag. On the plus side all his tests are open book and he is a very generous grader.

Super easy teacher. He literally changed my end of the year grade from a B- to a B+ because he thought I deserved better. (I may not have). He is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet though. he is not a **** to students like Hashimi can be, and really wants whats best for you.

The class had a lot of work to it...it was pretty easy though taking it online. A lot of the homework assignments were challenging but they were graded very easily. I thought I was doing bad in the class, but ended with an A, so it was fine.

Basically he is very hard to understand and doesn't explain things that well. You teach yourself everything out of the book but he does try to help. The class is really easy though.

Comment:
Dr. Thapa is probably the smartest professor on Ferris campus. He has 5 degrees from 4 different universities!!!!! He's the only professor that can teach Geodesy II at ferris, since no one has enuff background about the material. He needs to be a little bit strict on students though. But What a great teacher. I love you poopoo

Ben you were great! Nice tie man. Dr. Thapa is a very caring teacher but can be hard to understand sometimes. Most of the labs are unorganized but the students figured things out.

Why is this man teaching? He would not cut it as a shelf stocker at Wal-Mart. I have never been in a more unorganized lab in college. The man has less surveying experience than most of the students in this program. He has been teaching 19 years, lets all hope he retires after 20. I cannot recommend him for anything.

what do you mean "you recommend him" ???? All surveying students have to take Geodesy 1 and 2 with Thapa, There's no other way to take it with another professor. They offer only one damn section for each class, so u dont have much of choice !!!!!

Thapa is a great professor. He does have an accent but it is not hard to understand him at all and he is pretty good at making hard concepts quite easy to understand. SURE classes are all quite challenging but if you go to all the classes you will learn a lot and will not regret taking courses with him. I definitely recommend him if you're serious.

Comment:
This professor may be the worst teacher in the world, he is not a Professional surveyor and has no real world experiance that can help his students relate to complex theory. Perhaps he will give you an A because he is scared of you. other wise he will give you one because he wants to be your pal.
