Journal Title: Yükseköğretim ve Bilim Dergisi - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3

Abstract

The development at the level of education has an undisputed contribution to individual and social development. However, the studies which analyze the change in education levels through analysis of large dataset are scarce in the literature. The aim of this study is to examine the changes in educational levels in Turkey between the years of 2010 and 2015 in relation to year and region. To this end, Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics was examined with the data received from OECD, Turkish Statistical Institute and Gapminder. The analysis of data showed that the biggest drop in five years was in the unschooled population whereas the biggest increase was in the university level. As a remarkable result, the greatest increase in the undergraduate and graduate levels was found to be in Southeastern Anatolia Region.
