Pros

The university has been nationally recognized for the quality of its core curriculum and the diversity of its student body. Small class sizes and a low student-to-faculty ratio allow students to build meaningful relationships with expert faculty who truly care about their success. Lamar was recently designated as a Carnegie Doctoral Research University, one of only 29 public schools in the nation to receive that designation. LU has more than 300 students enrolled in doctoral programs. Lamar University has a 19:1 student to faculty ratio.

Cons

It requires more faculty in engineering departments and it should set high standard for graduate students admission.
