The forecast for public spending on tertiary education in Germany indicates a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. The year-on-year variation between 2024 and 2025 shows a slight decrease. This subtle downward trend continues consistently through the subsequent years, with each successive year experiencing a minor reduction in spending. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period reflects a small but steady average annual decline in public spending.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in government policy, economic conditions, and demographic shifts, which could influence funding levels. Additionally, advances in technology and shifts in educational methodologies may impact how funds are allocated and utilized within the tertiary education sector.
