The graph below shows the number of university graduates in

Canada from 1992 to 2007.

The line graph demonstrates the number of


male and female university graduates in
Canada over a 15-year period between 1992
and 2007.

Overall, women consistently graduated in


significantly higher numbers than men.
Notwithstanding that both groups
showcased minor declines during the late
1990s, a profound upward trend is evident
after 2000, particularly among females,
leading to a widening gender disparity by the end of the period.

In 1992, there were just under 100,000 female graduates, while the
corresponding figure for males was around 70,000. Female
graduation numbers increase modestly to a peak of approximately
105,000 in 1995 before falling back to about 100,000 in 1998. Male
figures followed a comparable trajectory, rising to around 76,000 in
the mid-1990s and then dropping to just over 70,000.

After 2000, graduate numbers for both male and female rose
steadily. However, the increase among young women was far more
substantial, with figures climbing sharply to nearly 150,000 by
2007. In contrast, male graduates increased more gradually,
reaching about 95,000 at the end of the period. Consequently, the
difference between the two groups becomes significantly larger in
the final years. (184 words)
