Accommodation near The University of Limpopo
The University of Limpopo is a young
addition to the South African education scene. Its doors officially opened on
the 1 January 2005 after a merger between the Medical University of Southern Africa (MEDUNSA) and the University of the
North.
MEDUNSA, as the name implies, focused on
training healthcare professionals, specifically those from educationally
disadvantaged backgrounds. The University of the North also catered to those
groups of people disadvantaged by the South African government's Apartheid
policies.
Both institutions had their heyday in the
1970's and their shared history of
educating groups of society who were disadvantaged by the country's political
policies is what informs the
University of Limpopo's contemporary mission statement. That is to be a
world class African university which responds to the educational, research and
community needs of South African society through partnerships and knowledge
generation and thus continuing the tradition of empowerment.
Because the university is the result of two
institutions coming together, it is located
across 2 campuses. One campus is in Turfloop,
which is located north of Polokwane in Limpopo and was once the University of
the North, and the other campus is located in the north of Pretoria, where MEDUNSA once had a home.
The university boasts 4 faculties, each of which have a number of specialised schools
offering a range of degrees. The faculty
of health sciences is located in Pretoria and consists of the school of
oral healthcare sciences, healthcare sciences, health sciences and pathology
and pre-clinical sciences.
There is also a faculty of humanities, the faculty of science & agriculture and the
faculty of management and law.
