The graph compares the percentage of international and the percentage of UK students gaining second class degrees or better at a major UK University in 2009. YAj5
The bar chart presents a comparison between the percentages of UK and international students who achieved second class or higher degree from a UK university in 2009. It is obvious that more international students gained degrees from engineering and technology majors than local British students. Getting down to the details, local UK students predominated the international students in terms of completing their second class or higher degrees from that particular university except for the Electrical engineering and IT faculties. For instance, around 80% UK students got their degrees from sociology, art history and literature while the percentages of international students who achieved honours in the same subjects ranged from 65-70%. In contrast, the proportions of foreign students in majors related to engineering and information technology were approximately 10% more than the proportion of local students who got their degrees in these faculties the same year. Interestingly, almost an equal proportion of local and international students got their degree from nursing (roughly 78%) and accountancy (exactly 60%). Finally, the largest gap between the ratios of local and international degree holding students in this university was in international laws faculty with 70% and 50% of students relatively.
