The graph compares the percentage of international and the percentage of UK students gaining second class degrees or better at a major UK university. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features.
The bar chart presents a comparison data between the percentages of
UK
and international students
who achieved second class or higher degree from a UK
university
in 2009. It is quite obvious that more international students
gained degrees
from engineering and technology majors than local British students
.
Now getting back 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 in engineering and IT faculty. For instance
, around 80% of UK
students
got their degrees
in sociology, art history and literature while
the percentages of international students
who achieved honours from the same subjects ranged from 65-70%. More foreign students
dominated in majors related to engineering and information technology and approximately 10% more foreign students
passed from these two majors than the local students
who got their degrees
from these faculties in the same year. Interestingly, almost an equal proportion of local and international students
got their degree in nursing (roughly 78%) and accountancy (exactly 60%). Finally
, merely 50% of international students
gained their degrees
in international law at this
university
against around 70% of local students
which represents the largest gap between the ratio of local and international degree-holding students
in this
university
