Annex C
STUDENT NUMBERS
Although the total number of students qualifying
in Engineering (all domiciles and all levels of study) has been
increasing in recent years, Engineering has lost ground in terms
of the proportion of graduates in all subjects:

Statistics Agency (HESA).
Notes:
- Figures cover students from all domiciles,
on all levels of study and all modes of study.
- In 2002-03 the methodology for recording
subject of study was changed on the student record. Aside from
the introduction of a new coding frame, JACS (previously a system
called HESACODE was used), students were apportioned between their
subjects of study rather than being assigned on a headcount basis
to their major subject. As such, comparisons between figures for
2001-02 and earlier and for 2002-03 onwards can not be made.
