Additionally

, the gender distribution of both categories was fairly even across all

throughout. Looking at the table in

further

detail,in 2001, the number of local

students

was exactly 33,657 which was over six times higher than the international ones. During the period between 2001 and 2010, the domestic

students

witnessed a slightly mere increase from 33,657 to 39,488

whereas

the foreign

students

went up significantly, to around three times higher,

hence

, the total number rose gradually between nearly 39,000 and 54,000. Turning the focus towards the pie charts, in 2001, it can be seen that the local undergraduates accounted for 87% of the total number, with the gender distribution being almost identical. Meanwhile, the rate of non-local males and females constituted 4% and 9%, respectively. By 2010, the total percentage of local genders dominated at 73%

while

the women were 3% higher. In light of three per cent, it was
