Mission of the University of Cape Town
UCT is committed to
engaging with the key issues
of our natural and social
worlds through outstanding
teaching, research and
scholarship. We seek to
advance the status and
distinctiveness of scholarship
in Africa through building
strategic partnerships
across the continent, the
global south and the rest
of the world.
We aim to produce
graduates and future
leaders who are influential
locally and globally.
Our qualifications are
locally applicable and
internationally acclaimed,
underpinned by values of
engaged citizenship and
social justice. Our scholarship
and research have a positive
impact on our society and
our environment.
UCT provides a vibrant
and supportive intellectual
environment that attracts
and connects people from
all over the world.
We will actively advance
the pace of transformation
within our university and
beyond, nurturing an
inclusive institutional culture
which embraces diversity.
