Sol Plaatje University (SPU), the Central University of Technology, Free State (CUT), the University of the Free State (UFS),  and the International Relations Departments of the Free State Provincial Government and the Northern Cape Provincial Government takes great pleasure in inviting you to the first-ever Regional Virtual Study Abroad Fair on 1- 2 October 2020.

This is an opportunity for current SPU students to learn about the many opportunities for you to study internationally – either through short programmes while you are a student or perhaps after finishing your qualification in South Africa.

Various international education agencies and embassies will be exhibiting the scholarship opportunities available in their countries and globally. Embassies and education agencies that would be represented include the USA, UK, Hungary, German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), Nuffic Neso South Africa, Southern African Nordic Centre (SANORD), China, Sweden, RUDN University, Switzerland, DHET, France and many more. 

In addition, SPU staff could benefit from this event as many of the Education Agencies and Embassies will share funding and other opportunities for joint programmes and projects.

The event programme can be downloaded here.
