The Modern Public Ivies

[UCBChemEGrad]

<p>

It’s not what I got at Chicago (years ago). First and second year Core courses typically had discussion classes with ~15 students led by a faculty member (sometimes a distinguished full professor.) Lectures (75 students, maybe) supplemented the discussion classes as background, not the other way around. For each quarter-long course, typically we’d get at least one 5-10 page paper, graded by the professor and returned with comments.

Chicago grad students get no teaching experience then?</p>
