How to read this table

The table rows separate aggregate indicators and highly specialized groups to enable comparison of the scale of training across different specialist profiles. Comparing the 'Total graduates' row with individual professions shows the share of specific specialties within the total volume of skilled personnel. Over six years, the total figure changed insignificantly: from 165.5 thousand people in 2019 to 163.6 thousand in 2024

What is visible in these numbers

Five highest values: Total graduates (167.8), Graduates — engineering and technology of land transport (32.2), Graduates — machine building (29.9), Graduates — service and tourism (26.4), Graduates — industrial ecology and biotechnology (25.8). The gap between the highest and lowest is 1,678 times. The top five account for 78% of the total across all categories — the distribution is heavily skewed toward the top

Observations are annual; total periods: 6. 150 of 150 possible values (100%) are filled, meaning the table is almost entirely complete
