We have a holistic approach in regards to how a student should be introduced to a study field or subject.
This is reflected by the fact that we try to present a well balanced academic programme combining theory and practice in an organic manner. Our social programme is also designed in such a manner that it supports our academic programme and provides an introduction to the cultural diversity of Stellenbosch and the Western Cape.
