University of Cape Town

UCT is committed to supporting both students and staff to ensure they reach their potential. This includes providing access to resources, ongoing support and rewarding success.

UCT provides different types of accommodation for undergraduate and postgraduate students, on and off campus.

The Office for Inclusivity and Change (OIC) was established to build, develop and foster an environment where everyone feels included and change is respected, encouraged and celebrated.

UCT is an integral part of the community surrounding the university, and aims to use its scholarship and professional expertise to benefit this wider community, both locally, provincially, nationally, and throughout Africa.

UCT takes a zero-tolerance approach to any form of unfair discrimination, harassment, sexual violence and behaviour that demeans others.

UCT is dedicated to developing inclusive classrooms that remove obstacles that may impede success for black students in particular.

UCT aims to build an inclusive campus through artworks, symbols, the use of language, and the names of buildings and facilities; and to remain Africa’s finest institution of learning and research.

Sustainability becomes possible only when transformation and excellence work in tandem.

Principle 1 of the International Sustainable Campus Network (ISCN) covers electricity, water, waste and recycling, and greener buildings.
