The pie chart outline the breakdown of enrolments on various courses at a UK college of education in 2010 and 2012. Overall, it can be seen that the most significant change was in the percentage of enrolments to the sports science courses.
In 2010, the most popular course was social studies, representing just over a quarter of all enrolments, and although it was still a popular course, by 2012 it had fallen to one fifth of the total. At 25.7%, nursing was the second most popular subject to study, but this fell significantly to less than a fifth two years later. Initially, enrolment on the sports science course was fairly low, at 11.9% which was only above one in ten. However, this figure doubled over the two years to represent the largest proportion of enrolments in 2012 at 25.5%.
On the contrary, far less change was witnessed in the remaining three courses. Enrolments on the engineering course went up slightly to 18.5% in 2012, but psychology remained virtually unchanged. This was also the case for carpentry, which experienced a minor difference of enrolment throughout the period.
