The Council of the University of the Free State (UFS) is seeking to co-opt a suitable candidate to serve for a period of four (4) years on the Finance Committee of Council. To this end, nominations for suitably qualified and experienced candidates are invited.

The Finance Committee of Council exercises oversight over the financial and investment portfolio of the UFS.

Candidates must be suitably qualified with requisite knowledge and experience of financial matters (including investments and acquisitions that are material to the UFS’s business). An appropriate qualification in the financial field is required, as is registration with the relevant professional bodies. 

Nominations must be submitted on the prescribed Nomination form, together with detailed curricula vitae, to the Registrar of the UFS at registrar@ufs.ac.za before 16:30 on 12 January 2022.

The Nominations Committee of Council will consider all the nominations and make a recommendation to the Council, which will decide whether to co-opt any of the candidates. 

The Finance Committee meets at least four times per year, or more frequently as may be necessary. 

The Council may decide not to co-opt any of the candidates.  

For enquiries, you may contact Mr NN Ntsababa at registrar@ufs.ac.za or telephone number +27 51 401 3796.

Academic activities on UFS campuses continue
2016-10-10

Contrary to reports in the mass and social media earlier today, the Bloemfontein Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) has not been closed today (Monday 10 October 2016). Academic activities resumed on all three campuses this morning.

Earlier today, a group of students disrupted classes and tests on the Bloemfontein Campus. Some students on the Bloemfontein and Qwaqwa Campuses were arrested by the South African Police Service in terms of their own instructions.

The academic programme is, however, continuing and the university management has put all necessary and reasonable arrangements in place to safeguard staff, students, and its campuses.
