Methodological note

The Statistics on Commuting for University Students provides information of the trips students make between their places of residence and their places of study and is based on the registration data for Catalonia, which make reference to both resident and non-resident students.

Idescat draws up these statistics upon the basis of the registration records kept by the University and Research Secretariat of the Ministry of Business and Knowledge.
