No, they were fine, although a little straightforward. Not analytical enough.

Course recommendations
For the IEF program some teachers just dont teach rather they make you read their papers and present on them. Also there is very little assistance for the International student in terms of career or internship placement. Most things are geared towards the dutch students only.

Personal comments
Tilburg Economics program gets its #1 ranking from the # of professors who publish NOT from the quality of the program or its professors. Many of them cannot communicate a positive teaching environment or are partial to dutch speaking students. In some classes even the Professors student assistants are allowed to take their bosses class. Its no suprise that they are graded very high by the professor.
