2017 Annual Report

The report on UCT operations consists of five sections. The first two sections deal with a reflection on executive objectives for 2017, including those specifically derived from UCT’s Strategic Plan 2016-2020 (26 of these, out of 64 objectives in the whole plan) but also more broadly in relation to the physical plant and
other operational areas. The third section deals with a quantitative analysis of our student body in relation to our enrolment plan and our academic staffing capacity. This analysis also covers overall student enrolment and demographic profiles, student academic performance and student housing provision. All universities
receive several earmarked grants for specific purposes from the Department of Higher Education and Training and the fourth section in this chapter provides
an update on the progress in utilising these grants. The last section of this report deals with the reports of Senate to Council.
