The data forecasts a declining trend in the number of males enrolled in Master's or equivalent level studies involved in credit mobility under EU programmes, from 4.59 thousand in 2024 to 3.14 thousand in 2028. This represents a consistent annual decrease, with considerable year-on-year reductions beginning at -8.1% from 2024 to 2025, and continuing to -10% annually onwards. This significant drop signals a challenging landscape for EU programmes' attractiveness among males at the Master's level.
Key future trends to watch include:
- Potential impacts of evolving EU educational policies on program attractiveness.
- The influence of job market shifts on the appeal of abroad studies or placements.
- Technological advancements facilitating remote mobility experiences.
