Note

This data table complements analysis in the education Census in Brief articles. In order to meet the analytical requirements of the articles focusing on the labour market outcomes and earnings of bachelor's graduates, those who studied Law (22.0101) and Pharmacy (51.2001) have been excluded from this table. They were excluded from the analysis because, at the bachelor's level of education, these programs require previous university level education for admission. Excluding those who studied Law and Pharmacy made the remaining fields of study at the bachelor's level more comparable. Only tables specifying these exclusions are affected.
