Arts degrees top Jersey student course lists

Monday 17 August 2015


Art, design and photography Uni courses are attracting the most Island students, according to fresh figures.

And while Jersey students are eager to get their creative juices flowing, they’re not so interested in a few other lines of work – just four students are currently studying agriculture or environment courses, and just nine are doing geography courses.

The details have been released in response to a Freedom of Information Law request about the subjects that undergraduate students from the Island are studying.

In total, there are around 500 differently-named courses, so the Education department categorised them into the 16 sections below. The data covers students studying degree courses here, the UK and further afield.

The full list is:

Accounting, finance, business management – 57.

Agriculture, environment, conservation – 4.

Animal sciences – 14.

Art, design, fashion, architecture, photography – 91.

Dance, drama, music, theatre, acting, film – 53.

Engineering – 29.

Geography – 9.

Health and medical sciences – 90.

Humanities, English, history, archaeology, politics – 88.

Languages – 17.

Law and criminology – 53.

Maths, IT and computing – 33.

Sciences – 83.

Social sciences, psychology, sociology, social work – 61.

Sports, leisure, recreation – 63.

Teaching – 57.
