The closing date for the submission of nominations for five members of the Convocation to the Excom of the Convocation was 18 May 2020 at 16:30. A total of six nominations were received and scrutinised, after which two nominations were declared invalid due to substantial non-conformance with the requirements laid down. The remaining four candidates are thus elected to the Excom and will serve for a period not exceeding five years.
We wish to congratulate the following four officials (in alphabetical order) with their election to the Excom of the Convocation:
1. Dr Pieter Bettings
2. Ms Ntombi Nhlapo

A meeting of the Excom of the Convocation will be scheduled to discuss the one remaining vacancy in the Excom.

The Faculty of Economics and Management Sciences at the University of the Free State (UFS) was visited by Prof. Marc de Clercq, Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration of the University of Ghent, Belgium, to explore the possibilities of collaboration in education and research in the field of economics and management. The two universities have signed a collaboration agreement in 2007. Prof. De Clercq was accompanied by Prof. Luc D’Haese, Extraordinary Professor of Rural Economy and Development Economics, and Advisor to the Rector on international affairs. This visit will be followed by a video conference to plan for further cooperation implementation, and for a reciprocal visit by UFS to Ghent later this year. Here are, from the left: Prof. Hendri Kroukamp Acting Dean: Economic and Management Sciences at the UFS, Prof. D’Haese, Prof. De Clercq and Prof. Aldo Stroebel, Head of Internationalisation at the UFS.
