In this Statistical Review, the State Statistical Office of the Republic of Macedonia is publishing data on
graduated students at tertiary institutions during 2012, as well as data on masters, specialists and doctors of
science during the same calendar year.
The data presented in the Review are a result of the regular annual surveys in the field of tertiary education,

institutions in which postgraduate studies are organised for obtaining the title of Master of Science or Doctor of
Science.
The data are classified by types of educational institutions, sections and groups, mode of study, place of
permanent residence, age, sex and ethnic groups, students - foreign citizens who have graduated at universities
and higher vocational schools in the Republic of Macedonia, etc.
This Statistical Review also includes data on graduated students, specialists, masters and doctors of
science in the previous years, which provides an opportunity to analyse the dynamics of graduated students over
a longer period of time, i.e. from 1960 to 2012.
