'Trends in Enrollments and Graduates in Mathematical Sciences at South African Universities, 1986-2022' with Thomas Farrar.
HEMIS enrollment and graduate headcount data published on the DHET website was combined and cleaned to make it conducive to diachronic analysis. This included taking account of changes over time in qualification types, CESM categories, and institutions. The analysis is restricted to CESM category 15 (Mathematics and Statistics). Descriptive results are presented on enrolment and graduate headcount over time, broken down by demographic group, NQF level, institution, and CESM subcategory. There has been significant growth and demographic transformation in Mathematical Sciences students and graduates in South African universities over the past four decades. However, demographic representativity has not yet been achieved, especially at higher levels of study.
