<p>Are all of the classes big lectures? Or just the intro science courses? Are the professors available and willing to help? How many classes are taken each semester?</p>

<p>Overall average class size is 19 students.
Student/Faculty ratio = 9:1
96% courses are taught by a faculty member.</p>

30–39 students: 10%
40–49 students: 5%

100 or more students: 7%</p>

<p>There are some large lectures, but with an undergraduate population just around 4400 students there are not many. You'll find them in many of the intro style courses that can be taught like a lecture. The nice thing is that large lecture classes will also break down into small review sections each week. </p>

<p>Students typically take 5 courses per semester.</p>
