Some first-years are still trying to cope with the hectic academic workload, and our soon to be graduates are contemplating how they will find their feet in the post-university world.
The new edition of Kovsie Advice by the Advising Team in the Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL) would like to help you get ready for the busy academic times ahead. But they would also like to dedicate this edition to helping you align your tasks and efforts with the end goal – that dream job!
In this edition, ideas and resources are shared to help you align your academic journey with your career aspirations.

Proff. Dap and Anet Louw from the Department of Psychology at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently presented copies of their most recent book Adult Development and Ageing to the Vice-Rector, Prof. Driekie Hay and the Dean of the Faculty of the Humanities, Prof. Lucius Botes. The book will also be available in Afrikaans as Die Ontwikkeling en Veroudering van die Volwassene soon. Proff. Louw is currently busy with an extensive project to render Psychology study material much more relevant to the South African context and to make the books resulting from this project available in both English and Afrikaans to students. Their goal is also to translate key terminology in future editions into more South African core languages like Sesotho. Here are, from the left: Prof. Botes, Prof. Hay and Proff. Dap and Anet Louw.
