After agreeing to a 1-1 meeting via email, he never showed and then never responded to any follow up emails. Completely unprofessional, and something that would deserve a pink slip in industry.CHEM1151 2025-06-12 01:03:10 +0000 UTC
Sanjeev's Nanomaterials course was poorly planned and poorly executed. He relies on his post docs and graduate students to teach the class and did not at all follow the syllabus(all the dates being incorrect anyway). Data processing software necessary for exam questions was not provided. Course material was provided the day of the exam, etcCHEM7247 2014-02-20 09:06:38 +0000 UTC
Horrible teacher. Frequently condescending to students and does not answer emails readily. Does not answer questions clearly. Would not recommend to anyone. You would be better off buying a textbook and teaching yourself.CHEM3401 2013-10-29 15:23:55 +0000 UTC
Prof Mukerjee is a great professor for PChem. He explained things very well and was always willing to help during office hours or at the students convenience. He was a pretty generous grader if you made the effort to answer the questions.CHEM2401 2010-12-22 13:23:05 +0000 UTC
Probably the best teacher I've had at northeastern. always wanting to help students out.. the class was something to look forward.. tests are straightforward from problems in class.. every now and then there is a tricky short responce question..but he really makes students understand the materialCHMU401 2009-05-17 02:46:26 +0000 UTC
He's awesome! I had him for PChem (impossible class) and he made it as manageable as possible. Had office hours all the time and used questions from class on the exams. GREAT professor, probably the best I've ever had and for the hardest course I've taken. Funny tooCHM402 2008-12-15 15:50:27 +0000 UTC
Very nice guy, always tried to joke to break up the monotomy, but not the best teacher. Though I will say he was always willing to meet after class if you needed help. Make sure you do all the problems he gives you they willmost likely end up on your test.PCHEM1 2006-05-11 15:34:18 +0000 UTC
Mukerjee was interesting. I took chemistry with him and I only survived that class because I had previous knowledge from high school. He doesn't really teach and I didn't understand his grading at the end. He also told he didn't have office hours which was very weird. But he makes the lectures lively and funny. It's obvious he wants the best for uCHEM1151 2018-04-27 13:12:21 +0000 UTC
Extremely helpful and really wants all of his students to do well. I thought he was too fast with writing equations and notes on the board and more often than not I was struggling just to keep up on notes while also trying to conceptualize the material. Great professor for P Chem but the class is by no means a push-over.CHEM3401 2012-12-10 04:48:17 +0000 UTC
The best professor I have had at northeastern! He is very intelligent,makes the class very relevant by making a connection to real world applications of Physical Chemistry. He is approachable and is willing to go out of his way to meet with you for office hours.. He made P chem very managable, test were very fair! but going to class is a MUST!!!!!!CHMU401 2008-12-15 16:18:41 +0000 UTC
Dr. Mukerjee might be ok if you're really good at calculus. I had issues with the math (biochem people beware), and the most help I ever got was "It's just math. It's easy." with no further explanation. So frustrating...and P. Chem really doesn't have to be this hard.PCHEM1 2006-04-23 16:35:12 +0000 UTC
Sanjeev in an interesting man. He is poor at explaining things in class and makes lectures follow his online PowerPoints word for word. He often spends class time going on tangents explaining things "solely for your knowledge" and this obscures what you need to know and what you don't. Would not recommend taking a class with him again.CHEM1151 2017-12-10 20:55:00 +0000 UTC
Sanjeev made pchem bearable. He was super helpful as he was able to be contacted anytime. The exam's were straight forward, you just need to study you homework and pay attention in class. I actually loathed the thought of pchem, but after his class I become much more interested in the subject. Overall excellent professor; highly recommendable.CHEM3401 2011-12-21 11:49:06 +0000 UTC
Prof Mukerjee is not a bad guy, but simply not a good professor. Apparently my section was the first undergrad course he has taught in years, but that shouldn't matter in his ability to teach. Lectures consist of him regurgitating Powerpoint's he found online & students playing on computers/sleeping. 1 HW/Week. 3 tests & 1 final/semester.CHEM1151 2016-12-19 01:22:52 +0000 UTC
I definitely recommend him to any students who needs to take PChem1 at NEU. He's very busy yet, he's always willing to meet up with students and help out. He's pretty generous in grading as long as you really show the effort you are trying hard and do all the things he tells you to. I truly felt lucky having him!CHEM3401 2010-01-09 15:52:29 +0000 UTC
