Description

Long-run enrolment in Singapore tertiary institutions by sex and institution, published by the Ministry of Education in CSV format from 1982 through 2024. Covers autonomous universities, polytechnics, ITE, LASALLE, NAFA, and NIE with detailed footnotes on full-time degree scope and accounting changes in AY2023. Supports higher-education capacity and pathway research.

Official description

1) Intake figures include students who entered directly into the second and subsequent years. 2) University figures are for full-time first degree only. 3) National Institute of Education (NIE) figures are for Diplomas and Post-graduate Diplomas in education-related subjects. BA / BSc (Education) figures are included under Nanyang Technological University. There is an increase in the AY2023 figures from previous years due to changes in how the figures are accounted. 4) Polytechnic figures are for full-time diploma courses only. 5) LASALLE College of the Arts and Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) first degree figures are for publicly-funded full-time courses (started in 2012 and 2011 respectively) only. 6) Institute of Technical Education (ITE) was established in 1992 to replace the former Vocational & Industrial Training Board. ITE figures exclude apprentices.
