STELLENBOSCH UNIVERSITY ON-CAMPUS OPEN DAY SERIES

FACULTY OF AGRISCIENCES

Studying agriculture does not mean you need to own a piece of land, that you will wear khaki shorts or that you will end up doing manual labour.

We, at the faculty, train scientists and agri-business experts who find joy in working in the broader agricultural sector. If you have Mathematics and Physical Sciences, a love for the biological sciences or business, we invite you to join the faculty sessions. You will be astounded, amazed, and surprised by the exciting opportunities we offer.

You will be overwhelmed by the career options, and you will be inspired by the contribution we make towards food security, sustainability and finding solutions to worldwide problems. And for in case you don’t know: The Faculty is the leader for agricultural studies on the African Continent and is ranked in the Top 50 worldwide.

It is held in high esteem at national and international levels for its quality of training and the excellent research it produces, also as a consultant in the agricultural and forestry industry. Our graduates are sought-after and leaders in their respective fields.

Conservation Ecology & Entomology

Are you concerned about issues such as climate change, food, water, and social crisis? Then you should attend the Conservation Ecology presentation. We will show you how you (and science) can play a part in preventing and addressing these burning issues and make a very fulfilling career out of it. You can expect a short programme overview followed by pre-recorded guest presentations by several alumni (former students) that are working in various conservation and environmental fields. An overview of the focus areas within the department will be presented with enough time for questions and answers.

Agricultural Economics

Scroll through your Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram feed. Switch on your TV or open a newspaper – what do you see? Never in our lifetime has the food and agricultural industry faced so many challenges brought about by external factors such as COVID-19, disruptions in the global input sector, backlogs at key trading ports, global conflicts leading to even more disruptions, and changes in our climate. Agricultural Economists predict major disruptions in our interdependent food supply chains because of these external factors. At the same time, it is also the role of the Agricultural Economists to help manage these disruptions through their careers in the food and agricultural industry and as policy advisors to the Presidency. If managing these disruptions excite you and you are curious about the economy's influence on the food and agricultural industry, join us as we unpack our degree programs and the diverse career opportunities.

Horticultural Sciences

Do you love plants and are considering doing a BSc degree? Then it would be best if you also explored horticulture – the science behind the production and management of fruit, vegetables and cut flowers from producer to consumer. You share subjects with the BSc students such as chemistry, physics, biochemistry, and genetics. Still, you apply everything you learn to an industry with commodity value and an industry that plays a huge role in our economy. Opportunities in this sector are diverse, interesting, exciting, and plentiful. Join us at the department to meet some of our former students, engage with current students, and see where your love of plants can take you.

Please book your appointment with the Plant Doctors as we investigate important plant diseases and explore their management, from lab to industry. The session will connect you not only with microscopes and pathogens but also to our students studying this fascinating field.

40-minute interactive practical

Soil Science

You might think of soil as dirt; we believe it is life! Nutritious and healthy food starts with good soil; good wine starts with good soil; proper animal feed starts with good soil, and above all, the soil is probably, along with water, the most important natural resource we have. It is a key factor in food production, given the rapidly growing population, probable future water shortages, increasing pollution, soil degradation and ever-increasing food needs. So, we invite you to explore the study field by joining us at the department and hearing from former and current students what this study field is all about.

PS If you love chemistry and physics you should attend. A new and exciting field will unveil itself.

FACULTY OF MEDICINE AND HEALTH SCIENCES

TYGERBERG CAMPUS

Graduates of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS) at Stellenbosch University (SU) are internationally renowned for their ethical and caring attitude, as well as the high quality of healthcare they deliver to their clients, patients and communities.

Students at the Tygerberg Campus, where the FMHS is situated, enjoy a comprehensive student-centred support system consisting of student-driven academic support initiatives such as the Tutor-Mentor Programme, subject-specific tutors and the ResEd (Residence Education) initiative.

An experienced team of academics and support staff are involved in the academic progress of students with a particular focus on their general well-being. In addition to expert tuition in well-equipped facilities, students obtain relevant practical experience as they work with patients and communities in the very early stages of their studies.

In 2002, the FHMS founded the Ukwanda Rural Clinical School, the first rural clinical school in South Africa, with its headquarters in Worcester and branches in Ceres, Robertson, Caledon, Hermanus, Upington and Swellendam, which exposes FMHS students to first-hand experience in determining and treating the health needs of rural communities.

Access to undergraduate programmes in both medicine and health sciences depends on a structured selection process. Student numbers in health sciences programmes are limited by Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and the South African Nursing Council (SANC) regulations, the available infrastructure and budget of health services and the University, as well as the high demands set by the programmes, which usually can only be completed successfully by those students who have performed at above-average levels at school.

Open Day Programme

The FHMS is extremely excited to host prospective students at the Open Day on the Tygerberg Campus. Our Open Day programme will include information sessions on the respective undergraduate programmes in Dietetics, Medicine, Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, and Speech-Language and Hearing Therapy, student support services, bursaries and loans, and campus residences. You are welcome to book for one of the three respective sessions at:

·       Session 1 | 08:00 to 10:00

·       Session 2 |10:30 to 12:30

·       Session 3 | 13:00 to 15:00
