The UFS was one of thirteen entries that participated in the 2009 VIA Merit Awards Programme. Mr Nico Janse van Rensburg from the UFS says that this award is a milestone for the university, because it is a good example of an excellent design that is functional for the users’ needs at a very cost-effective budget.
