Abstract: The dataset RWI-UNI-SUBJECTS provides comprehensive information on the universe of academic subjects offered by the universe of higher education institutions across Germany between 1971 and 1996. RWI-UNI-SUBJECTS is based on tables extracted from paper-based guides on "Study and Career Choice'' that are annually published by the Federal Employment Agency to inform high school students about post-secondary education. The dataset is available on request as a public-use file from the Research Data Center Ruhr (FDZ Ruhr). It is structured to easily link locations, universities, and subjects with administrative and survey data. This dataset holds significant potential for use across various disciplines, including history, sociology, political science, economics, and other fields analyzing the higher education market.
