- Description
- From Foreword by Dr Sizwe Mabizela: Overarching our Institutional Transformation Plan are four core operational principles that guide our intellectual community and are intended to permeate every aspect of the life of our University. These are: 1. Sustainability - conceptualised and understood in the broadest possible sense, and not just environmental or financial sustainability; 2. Being simultaneously locally responsive and relevant, as well as globally engaged, so that we can enter the global knowledge system from our own position of strength and thereby enrich the accumulated stock of knowledge; 3. The advancement of social jus-tice; and 4. The public good purpose and value of higher education. These core principles are intended to be embedded into our teaching and learning, research, community engagement, and every aspect of the life of our University. The pages of this report outline the strong research trajectory that Rhodes University is on, which gives effect to these prin-ciples with increasing degrees of engaged research, and partner collabo-rations on the African continent and beyond. Rhodes University is very fortunate to have outstanding, dedicated and committed academic and support staff who take a deep and keen interest in the growth, develop-ment and academic success of each and every one of our students, as well as in the social and natural environment that surrounds us. The re-sults of the 2018 academic year were celebrated during a bumper grad-uation weekend in April 2019, in which a total of 2321 graduates were capped at six graduation ceremonies, 46% of whom were Postgraduates, 61% were women, and 19% were international students.
