The number of first-year students at universities in Saxony has risen. According to preliminary figures, 17,620 first-semester students have enrolled at state and state-recognized universities in the current academic year, as announced by the Ministry of Science. This is around 800 or almost five percent more than in the previous year. Above-average growth was recorded in the engineering sciences in particular, as well as art colleges, which traditionally have a high proportion of foreign students, according to the ministry.
