Abstract:
The Association of Faculties of Agriculture in Canada has been publishing data on student enrollment and the number of graduates at the Bachelors, M.Sc. and Ph.D. levels on an annual basis since 1978. This paper provides comparative annual data for all degree levels in the faculties of agriculture in Canada from 1978 to 1985.
Over the seven year period enrollment at the Bachelors level declined 10%. During the period 1978 to 1981 there was a sharper decline of 11%; some recovery has occured in recent years. Enrollment in diploma programs rose modestly in 1981 and then declined through to 1985 resulting in an overall decline of 11% during the period, most of which has occured in the past two years.
Enrollment of graduate students increased 36% during the seven year period with a major portion of the increase occuring since 1982.
