Statistics Report on TEQSA Registered Higher Education Providers, 2016

Overview & Synopsis

This Statistics Report is the third release of selected higher education sector data held by the Australian Government Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) for its quality assurance activities. It provides a snapshot of national statistics on all parts of the sector by bringing together data collected directly by TEQSA with data sourced from the main higher education statistics collections managed by the Australian Government Department of Education and Training. This update of the Statistics Report focuses on data relating to 2014. The Statistics Report provides high level information across four key areas: providers, students, academic staff and finance. While the Statistics Report is focused on higher education data, financial data include all sources of revenue within a provider's operations, including revenue from VET and other activities, reflecting the breadth and diversity of operations within some higher education providers. The Explanatory Notes and Glossary at the back of the Statistics Report provide further contextual information on the data and presentation.
