Also making the world a better place in their own special way and making sure to put the university on the map is our ENACTUS team who managed to earn themselves second place at this year’s national finals. We are extremely proud of you and thank you for showing the other teams what this young university is made of!
Filling me with pride, and an honour for our university, are the four staff members who were recently chosen to participate in the Erasmus+ Staff Training and Mobility Programme, a European Union-funded initiative designed to support training periods for staff working in higher education institutions. We’re excited to hear and experience all that they have learned during their time at the Harper Adams University in the UK.
And last but not least, we also have a student who will be spreading her wings and trotting the globe on a bursary she earned through hard work and determination. Bachelor of Arts student, Mamogobo will later this year jet off to the United Kingdom on a three-week educational tour, after receiving the Abe Bailey Travel Bursary. We look forward to hearing of her adventures.
Another proud moment is the nomination of Water Management lecturer, Dr Tatenda Dalu, who was recognised by the 2021/2022 National Science and Technology Forum-South32 (NSTF-South32) for his outstanding contribution to science, engineering and technology in South Africa (SET). Congratulations to Dr Dalu. Keep up the good work.
Lastly, let me take this opportunity to welcome our new staff members. Hope you enjoy your stay and contribute positively to our pioneering journey.
Take care of yourselves, and each other.
Professor Thoko Mayekiso
Vice-Chancellor
