The Directorate: Community Engagement will be virtually celebrating the launch of the new E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy on 10 December 2020. 

Most of the face-to-face community engagement activities could not take place this year due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 global pandemic and related physical distancing restrictions. Therefore, an E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy has been developed as an adapted virtual participatory learning environment in collaboration with our community, business, and government partners. This E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy seeks to make information accessible to communities through dialogue on engaged learning, training, and research for citizens to take actively part in developing their own lives and that of their surrounding communities. 


Details of the launch:

Date: 10 December 2020

Time: 16:00 (CAT)

Platform: Microsoft Teams

UFS Bloemfontein and South Campuses closed from 23 to 24 February 2016
2016-02-22

State of our campuses #6

The University of the Free State’s (UFS) Bloemfontein and South Campuses will be closed from 23 to 24 February 2016. The decision was made due to the strike of outsourced contract workers. Some students on the Bloemfontein Campus joined the strike today by protesting on campus.

The safety of staff and students is the priority of the senior leadership and this is why a decision was made to close the two campuses. No academic or administrative services will be available for the two days. However, essential services such as ICT Services, switchboard services, security, etc., will be available.
