Core Area and Themes of our Strategic Focus
UJ’s Strategic Plan 2035 is organised into three core areas and three themes that will guide UJ’s trajectory over the coming decade. The themes reflect UJ’s commitment to creating a meaningful and sustainable role for the university.
Core Areas
Themes
Recognised as the country’s second strongest brand, UJ offers world-class, internationally recognised academic programmes based on curricula informed by cutting-edge developments in both undergraduate and postgraduate education, and that are designed to prepare students for the world of work and for global citizenship. Our curriculum is increasingly reflective of previously marginalised scholarship that talks to a transformation and decolonisation agenda, with Africa at its core.
