Our school is in the design phase for a new science
building and one issue is the maximum student
enrollment for labs. Currently, we have a maximum
enrollment of eighteen students per instructor in our
physics and chemistry labs with biology labs ranging
from eighteen to twenty-four students per instructor
depending on the course. Administration wants all
labs to be at a maximum enrollment of twenty-four
students per instructor.
What is your maximum student to instructor enrollment
ratio for first year physics labs? Here, instructor
could be a faculty member and/or a TA.
I'll start with my school, Minneapolis Community &
Technical College. Please add to the table.
