Our reputation is linked to academic excellence. Our determination is to integrate South Africa more powerfully into the global knowledge economy by offering world-class education to all academically talented individuals and by producing new knowledge that will result in a better quality of life for all.
In alignment with the priorities of our country, we want to advance economic competitiveness and social transformation through research, teaching and learning activities to produce the high level and scarce skills needed to foster development.
We are committed to:
- Maintaining the highest standards in both teaching and research;
- Harnessing the talent of academically excellent individuals;
- Producing new knowledge and developing intellectual capital that responds to the needs of our society;
- Developing skills that are desperately needed right across Africa;
- And developing more and higher quality graduates in science,
engineering, technology, accounting and commerce whilst not
neglecting the arts and humanities.
 On this website, we've highlighted just a few projects supported by the recently launched Chancellor’s Annual Fund. I hope you will be inspired to join with me in investing in excellence and in creating possibilities that will ultimately benefit all South Africa’s peoples.
I sincerely hope I can count on you to show your support by donating generously to the Chancellor’s Annual Fund.
Justice Dikgang Moseneke – Chancellor, Wits University |
