AFFILIATES
Scholars who do not wish to be
enrolled for a UCT degree/course, but who would like to
conduct their own research at UCT, may apply to be an
Affiliate for the intended duration.
Affiliates are administered by our International Academic
Programmes Office (IAPO).
Information on affiliation,
application procedures, as well as IAPO contact details will
be found here:

The Department's input
into the application process
Before applying, you are
welcome to contact us to find out whether we would be
willing to host you for the duration of your stay.
Contact the graduate
administrator in the department.
In the event that we are able
to host you for the intended period, the department will
forward a letter to IAPO, with a copy to yourself, agreeing
to do so. Be sure to let us know the exact time frames
of your stay.
Please be aware that there is
a fee levied for affiliation. Refer to the
Fee Handbook.
What services and facility
access can be expected from UCT/the Department
Affiliation includes the use
of UCT library and student computer facilities.
Informal consultation with
staff is on an availability basis (see
here for staff details). If
you would like to meet with any particular staff members, it
would be advisable to approach them beforehand to see
whether they would be amenable/available for consultation.
Due to staff members' heavy
supervisory workloads for our own Honours and Masters
students, supervision for external theses cannot be
provided.
Affiliates are welcome to
attend open seminars hosted by the department which are not
course-based seminars.
Access to our postgraduate
intranet - through which we communicate with our students
and also inform them of seminars and talks - can be provided
if wanted.
Office space is limited and
we regret that we do not have available offices to spare.
