For each lecture, seminar or studio course offered in Fall '04, an average class section size from the past four academic years is listed below. Not all courses were offered every year. New courses have no historical information listed, but courses in the same topical area and course-level may approximate the expected class size. If a course description indicates a former course number, information on historical class size might be available under the archived class size listings.
The right-most column gives average class section sizes for this semester. The information listed reflects the desired section size for permission-of- instructor courses and closed courses or the actual section size for open courses.
