The table provides information about student enrollment in five courses – Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Computer Science – at a university in 2010 and 2020. Overall, it is clear that most courses experienced an increase in student numbers over the decade, with Computer Science seeing the most significant growth.
At first glance, Mathematics and Computer Science had the highest enrollments in both years, whereas Biology consistently recorded the lowest figures. In addition, Physics and Chemistry showed moderate increases, reflecting a steady rise in popularity.
In detail, Computer Science enrollment rose sharply from 200 students in 2010 to 450 in 2020, making it the course with the largest increase. Mathematics also saw growth, increasing from 400 to 500 students. In contrast, Biology had the lowest number of students, with only 150 in 2010 and 180 in 2020.
Physics and Chemistry recorded moderate increases, from 300 to 350 and 250 to 300 students, respectively. Overall, the data indicate a clear trend towards higher enrollment in technology and mathematics courses, while traditional science courses like Biology grew more slowly.
Overall, the table demonstrates that student enrollment increased across all courses between 2010 and 2020, with the most notable rise in Computer Science, while Biology remained the least popular subject.
