What is the Average Class Size?
The average class size is approximately 27 to 34 students; however, there are several introductory classes that are in large lecture halls, with as many as 125 to 350 students. These classes have weekly discussion sections in which 20 to 35 students meet with either the professor or a Teaching Assistant to discuss the subject and answer any specific questions. Usually when students enroll in courses specific to their major, class sizes get smaller.
