A new study has revealed that students on computer science and dentistry courses at university are much less likely to have had a sexual experience than pupils enrolled in other subjects. According to a new survey by student newspaper The Tab, 11 percent of computer scientists currently in higher education haven't had sex. 11,549 students were asked about their bedroom habits for the study, which then broke down the statistics in terms of which courses each person was enrolled on.

In contrast, pupils enrolled in Arts subjects like history and English were far more likely to have lost their virginity either before or at university. Art and sociology pupils were most likely to have had sex, with just one per cent claiming they were virgins. History of Art, philosophy, languages, business and politics all followed with just two percent of students revealing they were still virgins.
