Kovsie Students


With the second semester well underway, you may feel overwhelmed by the academic pressure and you aren’t sure how to find your way out of this maze. 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.

Enjoy the journey!

An Epic for the disabled
2014-03-17


Support Manfred’s team in support of the Unit for Students with Disabilities.

Manfred Venter (left), a student assistant in the Department of Agricultural Economics at the UFS who is working on his master’s degree, is currently cycling in the Absa Cape Epic. It is one of the toughest mountain bike endurance races in the world.

One of Manfred’s goals in the race is to create awareness for the Unit for Students with Disabilities at the UFS.

Support Manfred’s team – he cycles together with Michael Jacobs, a former Kovsie and irrigation farmer from Douglas. Donations will go to the Unit for Students with Disabilities.

He assisted Janneman Genis at the unit in writing tests and exams last year, and was amazed by the work that is done by the unit.
