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

State of our campuses: Academic activities suspended on UFS Bloemfontein Campus
2016-09-19

All academic activities on the Bloemfontein Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) have been suspended with immediate effect –- including tests and lectures. This decision by the senior leadership comes after a growing unease on campus resulting from this morning’s announcement on tuition fees by Minister Blade Nzimande, Minister of Higher Education and Training.  A further announcement about the continuation of the academic programme for the rest of the week will be made by 20:00 this evening.

Regular updates will be available on the UFS website, UFS Twitter and Facebook platforms.
