  • Stellenbosch University Research Report 2004
    STELLENBOSCH UNIVERSITY RESEARCH REPORT 2004 Editor: Senior Director: Research Stellenbosch University Stellenbosch 7602 ISBN 0-7972-1170-5 i FOREWORD The 2004 Research Report provides a comprehensive record of the University's research outputs. In addition to this overall survey of research at the institution, perspectives are provided on the performance of individual faculties and departments. Further statistical perspectives on research output and the nature of research activities are presented in other publications of the Division of Research Development, i.e. Research @ Stellenbosch; and Perspectives of Stellenbosch University. As in the past, a variety of persons and organizations contributed to the University's research programme. Stellenbosch University wishes to express particular recognition to the statutory research councils and commissions, government departments, private enterprises, foundations and individuals for their continued support of our research. As far as research funding is concerned, researchers at South African universities are increasingly dependent upon new sources for research funding. This includes national and international opportunities alike. Stellenbosch University therefore attaches great value to regional cooperation and substantive scientific agreements with other universities local and abroad, and to bilateral research and development agreements between South Africa and other countries. Apart from the active support of research by the University's management, a variety of internal support services provide assistance to researchers. These include the library and information services, capacity building workshops, information technology, infrastructure, the maintenance of laboratories and equipment, central analytical services, and support from the administrative and financial divisions, without which it would be impossible to conduct research of this calibre. We acknowledge with appreciation the dedication and excellent contributions made by Stellenbosch University staff members to the institution's research output.
