List of countries by tertiary education attainment

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These are lists of countries by number of people who attained tertiary education.

Largest share of college or university graduates in the G7

Tertiary education is the educational level following the completion of a school providing a secondary education. The World Bank, for example, defines tertiary education as including universities as well as institutions that teach specific capacities of higher learning such as colleges, technical training institutes, community colleges, nursing schools, research laboratories, centers of excellence, and distance learning centers.[1]

National Statistics

This is a list of the overall proportion of the population who have attained tertiary education (at least ISCED 5) in each country. Whenever possible, the proportion is calculated from only those aged 25 and above, as this largely excludes the people who are still in the process of attaining tertiary education and yields a more accurate percentage.
