Immigrants to Germany and the European Union are more highly educated than ever before, according to a new German study.
The Rockwool Foundation Berlin (RFBerlin) reports that 32.1% of migrants from non-EU countries had a university degree or equivalent qualification in 2024 — up from 30.9% in 2023.
The study, released Monday, describes this as a “record level” and part of a continued upward trend over the past decade.
In Germany, the share of highly educated non-EU migrants rose from 29.4% to 31.1% over the same period. For migrants from other EU member states, the percentage holding a tertiary qualification climbed from 33.8% to 35.2% EU-wide, and from 28.6% to 30.1% in Germany.
Nice. Germany has some good visa programs for skilled workers. If you’ve got the credentials, the consulates will work with you on immigration and it’s not a very onerous system.
Also, skilled workforce and politicians to reject you at the border, abuse you if you still come in, and maybe some Nazi and/or pig will even volunteer to burn you alive.
