- Description: [Extract from message from Minister of Higher Education and Training, Hon. Dr BE Nzimande]: It gives me pleasure to provide support to the International Education Association of South Africa’s (IEASA) 9th edition of the Study South Africa publication. The focus of this edition, which is Higher Education and Development in South Africa, is most appropriate today as South Africa continuously strives to ensure that higher education remains relevant and responsive to the developmental needs of the country. To this end, we always have to bear in mind that South Africa is a developing country, and as such still confronts challenges such as poverty and under-development. These challenges are characteristic of most developing countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Thus, our higher education sector, through its core functions of teaching, research, and community engagement, should seek to address these issues especially as they affect the poor and other vulnerable members of our society. Since we became a democratic state in 1994, South Africa has gone a long way to transform and restructure our higher education system to ensure amongst others equity with regard to the demographics of our staff and student population. The gender and racial profile of our students has improved significantly over the years to the extent that we now have black and female students constituting the majority at our institutions, especially at undergraduate level. It is also pleasing to note that our institutions enjoy good international standing. South African researchers and institutions continue to engage in research collaborations with their peers and counterparts around the world, and thus, are integral parts of research programmes and networks. With respect to student mobility, our higher education institutions continue to attract large numbers of international students, particularly from other parts of Africa. In 2007 the number of international students enrolled at our institutions was counted at 59 209, a significant increase from 44 439 in 2000. About 85% of these students originate from the African continent, more specifically the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region. Several factors account for the increase in the number of international students coming to South Africa. These include the country’s natural and ecological resources, rich and diverse cultural heritage, and the stable socio-political conditions. The consistent growth in the number of international students seeking to study in South Africa is a positive affirmation on the quality of the country’s institutions and the international reputation of their academics and qualifications. As a country, we see this growth as a positive development as it provides us with the opportunity not only to impart or relate our experiences, but also, to learn from others, and by so doing further enhance the international standing of our higher education system. , 9th Edition

- Description: [Extract from message from Minister of Higher Education and Training, Hon. Dr BE Nzimande]: The 10th Edition focuses on the highly relevant issue of ‘Higher Education Internationalisation in the Development of Africa’. The internationalisation of higher education is of great importance for the continent, if Africa wants to be able to compete and participate in a global context. Currently, there are only three African institutions in the Top 500 of the Shanghai Academic Ranking of World Universities and all of these are in South Africa. Similarly, one South African institution appears in the Top 200 of the Times Higher Education World Ranking and no other African universities are represented. Despite being cautious about the methodology used to derive rankings, our aim in higher education should be to actively compete internationally and, more importantly, to serve the developmental challenges of Africa. It is imperative that Africa engages internationally and participates in the development of humanity’s knowledge. Research outputs and publications are particularly low on the continent, and African universities need to develop their research capabilities and direct resources to this important function. It is particularly important that research, which affects Africa and its development, is conducted on a large scale on the continent, supported by collaborative work and partnerships, rather than being carried out predominantly in other countries. The time has come for the tide to change and for our researchers and academics to focus on research opportunities presented on the continent. This is an important step for Africa to take if it is to deal effectively with the problems it faces and take its place in the international arena. One way to increase and develop knowledge outputs is through collaboration. An important opportunity for South African universities is the Erasmus Mundus Programme funded through the European Union (EU). This programme encourages collaboration between South African and European universities and provides resources for the exchange of staff and students within specific research programmes. It is also important for Africa to develop the research collaboration within the continent and with other developing and developed countries. In this regard, the Intra-ACP (Africa-Caribbean-Pacific) Scheme is of great importance. This initiative by the African Union (AU), working in collaboration with the EU, provides the opportunity for academic staff and student exchanges between universities in these regions. Intra-African exchanges are of particular importance in developing the continent’s capacity. Through such programmes African universities can work together to develop research and participate in the knowledge economy. We should also not ignore the challenges faced in improving the quality of teaching and learning in African universities, including many in South Africa. If sufficient attention and resources are not directed to improving these most basic activities of higher education, we will not only fail to meet the continent’s human resource development needs, but we will fail to establish the basis for future research advancement. Student mobility is very much a part of our fabric and provides the necessary intellectual stimulation, which is an essential part of student life. The number of African students from outside South Africa studying at South African institutions is growing annually, as is the number of non-African students. The networks established through such internationalisation are invaluable. There are also large numbers of our own students who, through universities’ reciprocal agreements, are studying abroad. The information provided in this publication provides a valuable opportunity to showcase our higher education sector and goes a long way to providing the necessary facts to encourage such student mobility. , 10th Edition

- Description: [Extract from article by Ms Merle Hodges]: Over the past year there have been numerous conferences dealing with one general topic. How is it possible for higher education, globally, to produce the same quality in its graduates, research and community outreach when the financial resources entering into the system are radically declining? The conclusion is overwhelmingly despondent. ‘Universities have to do more with less, academics and academic research will increasingly be pressurised by lower salaries internally and career temptations from the corporate world – the impact of which is the greater commodification of universities, and the inevitable decline in academic freedom.’ This global negativity is predicated on inter–related factors. The first, the long tail of the economic recession, is continuing to bite all sectors and higher education is no exception. Secondly, higher education is a little like marketing – when the pressure is on government, sectors like higher education are de–prioritised. In light of this, the position of internationalisation in higher education might seem to fade into the background. Interestingly, the inverse is true. While the zeitgeist of higher education generally appears dismal, the prospects of internationalisation appear rosy in comparison. I believe this is true because of two overlapping issues. Firstly, students are not going to give up on university because of a lingering economic downturn. What they are doing, however, is deciding to travel and study at destinations that would have been perceived as implausible a few years ago. Venezuela, Chile, South Korea and South Africa are all drawing US students more than ever before. This is partly because, I sense, the quality of qualifications is achieving parity across the globe; and also, because students who are prepared to travel realise that cultural specificity – the ability to learn new and unique aspects of a different culture while gaining the same core ingredients of a degree – sets it apart from the degree gained locally. A one semester course in Russian anthropology might appear entirely redundant when applying for a job. However, the very interconnectedness of global business means not only that the course is never a waste of time, but that it might mean the difference between landing a contract and failing to do so. The international student has the benefit of developing in ways that traditional (home-grown) higher education may not yet fully understand. Secondly, development in South Africa at least, has an additional meaning. Our universities are not only focused on developing graduates for multicultural or global competitiveness. Over the past five or so years our universities have been focused on development of the country itself. As an emerging power, the impetus has been on creating universities that address the fundamental needs of the people. Poverty, HIV, sustainability and innovative solutions to global problems are the very sap of South African universities in the 21st Century. How to create a sustainable environment, how to preserve marine and wildlife, how to create jobs, reduce poverty, and maximise innovation – these are the concerns that are preoccupying the minds of the country’s best academics. , 11th Edition

- Description: [Extract from article by Ms Merle Hodges]: A recent article points to the feeling of alienation that students feel when studying away from home. It seeks to address the problem by establishing a range of fora where foreign students can feel more ‘at home’. It encourages host students to be more willing to accommodate these ‘outsiders’ in order to boost the reputation of the institution. Most of these initiatives are slightly patronising, but obviously well-meant. The overriding sense behind the article is that international students, within higher education institutions, are a benevolent burden. International students should be looked after, because universities are generally maternal (they are someone’s alma mater after all), places of kindness (they literally give away knowledge) and generally care for others (community outreach is fundamental to most universities). More importantly, international students – in places like the USA and UK – generate additional funding in an environment where government and federal funding is drying up. But what if four out of every ten students in the world who graduated were from China and India? In the next eight years? That genial inconvenience now becomes an imperative. These are the predictions by such august organisations as The British Council and the education branch of the OECD. It is also anticipated that these countries will not be in a position to educate this number of students internally. Which, in turn, suggests that there will be mass outflows at the undergraduate level and, by sheer dint of numbers, also means that internationalisation is heading towards a compounding acceleration in numbers. Where then does internationalisation stand? It will no longer be an altruistic add-on, but core business to the lifeblood of the universities across the globe. As far back as 1994, Jane Knight understood internationalisation as a phenomenon that would have a profound impact on the functions and structures of the university. “Internationalization,” she points out, “is the process of integrating an international, intercultural, global outlook into the major functions of a university – teaching, SRC, and service functions.” Over the past year arguments have been made that suggest that global shifts in student demographics are not the ‘province’ of South African higher education and that our obligation is to focus internally, on poverty alleviation and job creation. This argument misses the point. The free flow of academics and students – especially the large number of postgraduate students from other countries already at our institutions – are working with our academics on solving exactly these kinds of problems. IEASA is no longer only about the 60 000 students who migrate to our shores annually. It’s about what they learn and the diverse experiences that they will go through; experiences that will change them for life and will inevitably bring them to a different understanding of the world that we, collectively, are presently fashioning. , 12th Edition

- Description: [Editor's Letter]: This 14th edition of Study South Africa foregrounds the celebration of 20 years of a democratic South Africa. Patrick Fish was commissioned to write a series of articles reflecting the development of South African Higher Education since 1994 for this edition. Reading through this the reader will hopefully experience a sense of the transformation of the South African Higher Education system. Although we all agree in South Africa that we are not done yet, we also recognise that given the South African realities, the change from a race based and fragmented system of higher education to a single but diverse system is well under way. The South African Universities transformed from mostly mono cultural to multicultural institutions that largely reflects the composition of the South African population. The University campuses also demonstrate the institutional appetite to be international. Not only do they jointly house more than 50,000 international students but are also involved in numerous ways in bringing the benefits of being globally connected to the local communities. We are one of the few higher education systems that largely fund our international activities from institutional budgets. This is one of the main reasons that South African Universities practice a style of internationalisation that is relevant to our institutional needs, as well as the local and national needs. Through our internationalisation endeavours we have connected with the rest of Africa in a very special way. Not only do we educate large numbers of students from other African countries but through the South African Higher Education alumni that now live all over the African continent we have built permanent connections that will enhance and develop long standing relationships. IEASA celebrates with all South Africans 20 years of democracy and realise that it is indeed a privilege to be practitioners in transformed ‘knowledge cities’. We are, however, saddened by the incidents of intolerance and destruction in other parts of the world that make the work of higher education institutions impossible, and can only in solidarity with those scholars at risk celebrate with deep appreciation the efforts and determination of those South Africans that made it possible for us to be Universities in a free and democratic society. , 14th Edition
