This is the eleventh of a series of triennial surveys of physics enrolments in Australian and New Zealand Universities. This project began in 1974 with surveys by de Laeter [1] and Watson-Munro [2] for physics enrolments at Australian Colleges of Advanced Education and Universities respectively in the period 1963 to 1973. The original aim of the surveys was to collect data for planning purposes and to study the effects of Government policy on the physics profession
