Abstract:
Using the outliers methodology, the focus of this paper is to present the time series dynamics of the German higher education system before 1945. The outline of the paper is as follows. In Section 2, we define the outliers and describe the outliers identification procedure. We apply this procedure to the annual series of the students enrolled in the protestant theology, law, medicine and literature faculties and analyse the results in Section 3. Section 4 concludes.
