Methodological explanations

Data on enrolled students result from the regular survey “Statistical Report on the Enrolment of Students” (Form ŠV-20). The survey covers all higher education institutions.

Data refer to all enrolled students at academic and applied studies, at all three levels of studies, as well as according to the old programme.

Data presented in this release refer to ISCED 6, 7, 8 levels according to The International Standard Classification of Education. A field of education represents a broad, narrow or detailed field consisting of a set of related educational programs, subjects or modules (ISCED-F 2013).

Starting from 1999 the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia has not at disposal and may not provide available certain data relative to AP Kosovo and Metohija and therefore these data are not included in the coverage for the Republic of Serbia (total).
