• HESA Where do HE students study https://www.hesa.ac.uk/data-and-analysis/students/where-study

  The HESA 2024/25 publication for The University of Birmingham reports 25,530 undergraduates, 14,500 postgraduates and 40,025 total students. HESA figures are rounded to the nearest 5.

  The official University of Birmingham Annual Report and Accounts 2024/25 says the university taught almost 43,000 students in 2024/25, but does not provide a level split. The catalog field therefore uses the HESA level breakdown; the specialist degree level does not apply to the UK model, so specialist enrollment is stored as 0.
