We do not collect information on the total number of courses available in any one academic year. Universities are autonomous bodies and it is entirely a matter for them which courses to offer. All institutions will review from time to time their suite of courses taking into account factors such as student demand and financial viability. Additional funding is available from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) for strategically important and vulnerable subjects.
