Which country has the most art degree graduates?

I don’t think the data represents the methodology Pete I’d assume it represents Disciplines that have become most associated with “STEM”...

In US we have Land Grant Universities which are public institutions founded around 1860 to award the then new Baccalaureate of Science degrees in various disciplines like physics, math, engineering etc... and then we have private Liberal Arts universities which award the old baccalaureate of Art degree in various disciplines like English, music, foreign languages, theater, film, Philosophy, religion, etc...

Under science methodology were trained to form hypothesis, test it, if it fails discard it, make corrective adjustment and form new hypothesis, test it, if it fails discard it, make corrective adjustment, rinse and repeat etc...

Under liberal art they are trained to create a Thesis , find someone with an anti thesis to your thesis, exchange in continuous dialog with the anti thesis people until you die (hence their “one funeral at a time”), then your survivors will take your thesis and synthesize it with the anti thesis to create a new thesis and then those people seek a new anti thesis and engage in dialog with those people until THEY die, that thesis is then synthesized with the anti, thesis, etc etc and on and on...

The people we have trying to run this thing are 99.9% from the latter and these people are manifestly unqualified as you can observe how fucked up everything is all the time...,

I don’t know what they are doing in China but here in US under soft power initiatives we allow China foreign exchange students to be trained under each methods... they have students attending both types of institutions..,
