Provided are the figures illustrating the average number of students instructed by each lecturer in Australia during the period from 1991 to 2007.
It is evident from the information supplied in the first table that the average student population taught by one professor in Australian universities had climbed steadily from 12. 3 in 1991 to17. 1 in 1999 and then had a significant increase by 4. 5 in 2001.
In addition to that, in terms of the average number of students taught by each professor in 2001, lecture-based subjects ahd a much larger number than laboratory-based ones. The number of Law students took the highest (28. 5), followed by Sociology and Education students with 24. 2 and 22. 5 respectively. When it comes to the other category, Science majors have a mere of 14. 0 students who are taught by an instructor, in comparison to 14. 7 for Agriculture and 17. 5 for Chemistry.
To summarise, the average number of students has risen steadily over
time, and Australian university classrooms will continue to grow more and more crowded in the future.
