The Technical University of Munich* \u2013 Lame Professors, Certainly: But Certainly Not Here \u2013 3<\/p>\n
Even the main association of German universities in Bonn is familiar with the problem of students having to wait for their final grades. Spokesman Matthias Jaroch explains, \u201cThe difficulty is often related to the fact that there is a large number of students and a very small number of advisers.\u201d On average, the professor\/student ratio is one to sixty, and that makes the workload severe. In so-called \u201cmass areas of concentration\u201d like German or English studies, the ratio is frequently even worse. In addition, the number of exams has increased in the past few years, ever since the traditional German degree system was transitioned into the kind of bachelor and master\u2019s degree programs common in most other countries.<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: Quelle: \u201cLahme Professoren\u201c, sueddeutsche.de, 5 April 2010.<\/p>\n *In the area of engineering\/technology and computer sciences, according to the Academic Ranking of World Universities compiled by Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the Technical University of Munich, officially recognized by the German government as an \u201celite university,\u201d is ranked with twenty-two other universities at 78 or below, well beneath such institutions as the Technical University of Denmark.

Wenn im Schnitt auf einen Professor rund 60 Studenten kommen, sei die Belastung sehr hoch. In Massenf\u00e4chern wie Germanistik oder Anglistik sehe es oft noch schlechter aus.
