- Description
- [From Introduction] This is the first formal research report published by Rhodes University. The reason research reports have not been published previously is that the annual Council and Senate report was largely a research report and it was unnecessary to duplicate this report. However, the required format of the University’s Annual Report has changed considerably from 2001 and no longer includes detailed information on the research outputs. I would like to add my congratulations to that of the Vice-Chancellor to all the staff and postgraduate students for their research efforts in 2001. Rhodes continues to be the leading Institution in South Africa in terms of research outputs relative to its size (determined by Government subsidy income). This is very significant and it is critical that this prominence be maintained, particularly in view of the recent restructuring of Higher Education in South Africa and the greater emphasis likely to be placed on research productivity by the revised funding formula. Research at Rhodes is actively supported by the University’s Management and a variety of internal support services including, amongst others, the Library, Information Technology, laboratory and equipment support services and the entire academic, administrative and financial infrastructure. Without this support it would be impossible to conduct research. Special thanks must go to the staff in the Research Office for all their efforts in promoting research and in particular to Moira Pogrund who complied the majority of this report.
